Piotr Urbaniec (1992, Poland) is a visual and performance artist based in Amsterdam. His current research centers on waves, understood both as water glitches and optical disturbances across gridded surfaces. The project takes an allegorical turn, reflecting on the futile human attempt to control nature—especially the weather—while ultimately remaining vulnerable to its unpredictable, atmospheric forces. The only way to protect ourselves from those forces is to sharpen our senses and perception to be able to see it and recognize it.
At Bau, he continues his exploration of the poetic and scientific links between visual perception and weather. He focuses on the aqueous—what flows from our eyes or drifts across our field of vision—mirroring the hyper-body of weather that surrounds us.
Piotr will present some of the results of his research on 20 June at Bau. The Public Sharing starts at 20.00h, doors aren open 19.30h. He will carry on doing more research after the summer break at The Grey Space (The Haque), right in front of the audience, and will give another presentation in The Grey Space during Museumnight on 11 October.
