Open on Saturdays and Sundays 12:00-18:00
From a point to a field is a project that is developed during a one-month residency at KIT project space.
The title refers to a fundamental concept in mathematics and physics: how a single, concentrated point can exert an influence on the space surrounding it, forming a field.
During the residency, this idea becomes a way of thinking about ecosystems and the relationships between different scales. A field can exist within a glass tank, within a room, throughout a building, or extend into the city surrounding it. Each can be understood as an ecosystem in itself, while simultaneously forming part of another, larger system.
From a point to a field considers how matter, organisms, technology, space and human presence continuously affect the conditions around them.

GROUP SHOW
Four Ninety Degree Angles
Hussel Zhu , Marijn Niggebrugge & Leo Rij
Vernissage 18.09 - 19:00-23:00
Finissage 27.09 - 18:00-21:00
Four Ninety Degree Angles is bringing together the works of artists Hussel Zhu, Leo Rij and Marijn Niggebrugge.
Each of their works explore the limitations of spatial movement, by breaking and bending rules, whether mischievous or out of urgency. Within this group show, Four Ninety Degree Angles examines the experience of being bound and constricted by unwritten laws and trying to find a sense of belonging, but staying ever slightly out of place.

DUO EXHIBITION
From One to Another
Charlie Jansen & Alessio Pinton
Vernissage 26.06 - 19:00-23:00
Finissage 12.07 - 18:00-20:00
The duo-exhibition From One to Another exhibits the most recent developments in the artist practices of Charlie Jansen (2000, Rotterdam) and Alessio Pinton (...., Rotterdam). Their work delves into the sonic and material characteristics of a multitude of lifeless materials, ranging from stainless steel to limestone. Their artistic research aims to make tactile the processes, dialogues, exchanges and vibrations that remain invisible to the human experience.
Pinton departs from the human nerve system, and focuses his practice on strengthening our relationship to our environment. Using music, sensors and real-time data, he translates non-human signals to relatable human experience.
In her interactive installations Jansen researches the material and sonic qualities of metal. Her work experiments with the resonance of large sheet of metal that are activated with the use of electronics and manipulated through audience interaction. Through interacting with her installation, self-generated and ever-changing sonic landscapes are born from catching and amplifying resonating vibrations.
From One to Another challenges its viewers to take on an active approach to watching and listening, in the midst of a surrounding that usually surpresses the signals and data that make up the works in this exhibition. These signals function as ominous, ever-transforming beats that emerge from their usual state of invisibility to take center stage. With their exhibition, Jansen and Pinton show how materials, space and people are in continuous motion and relation to one another.
