A black-lit desert merges with a neon-painted sea in Cristopher Cichocki's self-described "desert abyss," At The Surface. The founder of Epicenter Projects latest exhibition in Mexico’s Artere-A Espacio de Experimentación immerses viewers into a different dimension through visual and sonic experiments. For At The Surface's sculptural element, Cichocki uses synthetic materials to complement the natural objects he collected in his travels through Mexico’s desert regions. He transforms these materials with neon paint and places them under black light to create an ultraviolet effect. To increase the eerie tone of the overall atmosphere, Cichocki also manipulates water sources into 4-channel soundscape of ambient white noise.
