Noisescape is an installation, which evokes everything from a hilly countryside to a wave-tossed ocean. While the structure itself is entirely static, it uses specially designed projections to create the illusion of movement.
Right before the eyes of the viewers, a fascinating play of shapes and colours takes place, at one point recalling the ornaments of a kaleidoscope and at others the wild flora of a remote jungle or the elegance of Japanese woodcuts. In this minimalist installation, Teemu Määttänen integrates organic projection with a wavy projection surface and hand-painted patterns with computer-generated graphics.
Minimalist installation with maximum effect - that's Noisescape. This colourful projection will enchant both adult and child viewers with its playful optical illusions and unexpected combinations of different techniques.
