Opening on 4 June at 20:00-22:00
The Swiss artist Zimoun creates sound installations and sculptures made from recycled materials from everyday life and industry.
His installation will reveal a dense and hypnotic atmosphere,
connecting with nature but also touching on social criticism, automated processes, the world's power structures and progressive robotisation.
Through a handmade mechanical process, he activates local materials and with scratching, clawing, knocking, and vibrating, he makes the exhibition hall resonate and transform into a living environment.
Zimoun has presented exhibitions and performances across the globe, including in Korea, the United States, France, China, and the United Kingdom. His work has consistently garnered significant and well-deserved attention.
