Souvenir 186 - Field Experiments co-founder @karimcharlebois love for sculpture all started from an FE original copy idea where he copied and carved the plastic bottle glass of Paul’s work. He since has started to explores a more personal sculpture approach on his new IG account. Go have a look but stay tuned, Field experiments will be back soon for new original copy souvenirs. 😘
Field Experiments, Peru
In 2020, travel restrictions imposed by Covid hindered our physical get together for a field experiments project. With Melbourne, New York, and Montreal as our respective cities, we began exploring digital alternatives. We decided to virtually meet up in Iquitos, Peru, using Google Street View. Together, we navigated Iquitos, relying on screenshots rather than phones to document the landscape. These screenshots became the catalyst for our creative process, inspiring us to create virtual objects as souvenirs. The culmination of our work was exhibited within Google Street View, showcasing these digital artifacts in the context of Iquitos.
Spaced Apart - An online design, art, photography and sound symposium that brings us closer together while we are spaced apart, exploring the oscillating forces of isolation and connectedness in relation to creative practice. Featuring live presentations from local and international creatives. -
Brought to you by our family studio @u____p - please visit @spaced_apart for more information and to watch each presentation.
