xenorama

Intro： How to form a space poetically by means of modern media? Embracing this challenge, Xenorama develops various forms of expression situated at the interface of film, sound, installation and performance. With their individual voices and creative specialities, the five artists combine modern media technology with their passion for digital narratives and a highly-developed sense of atmospheric dramaturgy. Their stages are the theatre and the public space, architecture, sculptures, organic structures or even the human body. Fundamental to their work is a context- and site-specific approach, integrating the characteristics of a given space and the entities related to it. The space is thereby recontextualised, animated and transformed to be experienced anew. Their art goes beyond mere spectacle — eliciting an echo within the local discourse, while individual spectators may occasionally lose their perception of space and time on their sensory journeys. Xenorama’s diverse projects have been exhibited worldwide and achieved numerous national and international awards, including the Japan Media Award, the Lumen Prize Short List, the Micromapping Award Girona and the Designpreis Brandenburg.
