At Kraftwerk Berlin AROTIN & SERGHEI present during Gallery Weekend 2023 an immersive
solo exhibition with key works from the Infinite Screen cycle, and new giant audio/visual
composition, which interact with the entire 10,000 m2 of the former power station:

After the monumental vertical installations “Infinite Light Columns” and “Vertigo” at the Centre Pompidou, AROTIN & SERGHEI create at Kraftwerk a huge horizontal installation in shape of a 97 m line of waves and light particles, even crossing the concrete walls of the massive building.

“We want to bring the line of the horizon so close that anyone can touch it, and at the same time, even being close, it seems to still escape and create the impression of a new infinity – an immaterial sculpture for an immaterial time”.

Apokatastasis (2023) 

The idea of the installation refers also to the philosophical concept of Apokatastasis, the
universal restauration of the initial creation, a post-apocalyptic reset. The installation recalls also the Hebrew concept of Tsimtsum, describing the process of creation through a primordial initial contraction of infinite light. It is combined with a 14 channel audio composition and goes
beyond all fields of vision, opening up indvidual perspectives for each viewer. 

Constellations of The Future 5-11 (2023) 

In continuation of the first 4 parts of the intermedial sculpture cycle along the Ircam building in front Centre Pompidou Paris, the exhibition shows  seven columns of “Life Cells”in multiple dimensions. The monitors, one on top of the other, are programmed with individual time
sequences, “flooding” the screen surfaces with colour and light, extinguishing the stream of data to which we are constantly exposed, and thus leading to the essence of pure colour and free imagination and creating always different constellations of pulses of light.

Truth Possibilities 1, 2 and 3 (2017) 

Intermedial painting, drawing, pigments, prisms, wood, light frame, triptych 184 × 408 cm.
Drawings of light cells on different surfaces with superimposed barcodes and Braille codes
representing Ludwig Wittgenstein’s “Truth Possibilities” from Tractatus Logico Philosophicus.
The upper surface is made with prisms creating a subjective view for each viewer.
