Naomie Kremer:
Paint Moves

March 25 - May 29, 2005

In 2000, Naomie Kremer began using electronic media in order to incorporate the element of time in her work. Through an extremely innovative process of animation, Kremer deconstructs the layers of her paintings to reveal hundreds of individual elements of color, brush stroke, texture, composition and distinct objects moving through space. These animations are projected from floor to ceiling, thereby altering the physical relationship one normally has to painting. The immersive experience is like walking into a canvas. The two-dimensional painting is transformed into a three-dimensional painted world. Entering the world of digital animation, Kremer is creating a bridge between painting and digital media. She is one of the artists pioneering a dialogue between the hand-made traditional media, such as painting and new media, with digitally created art.

A second version of Paint Moves will be presented in our newly created projection room in conjunction with the exhibition.

This presentation is made possible through a grant from Arts Council Silicon Valley Applied Materials Excellence in the Arts.
