| Visual art performance featuring installations is not new and has been quite a rare thing that you see in local art galleries. It ranges from how exotic, and has something to do with the human condition or sometimes doesn’t give you the physical tactile feels. But it also enriches your visual and audio senses that you do not get to experience in everyday life.
It is really something to be immersed in and take a subjective look at something not painted or drawn that is hung from the walls of the gallery. For one night only, Vinyl on Vinyl brings you a Sound Installation and live mixing with Arvin Nogueras aka @CPR008 that will have his works on an exhibit titled “Unruh(e)” that captures that sound installation vibe that was performed in front of a live audience. |
The setup takes you to the dark side of the future with different tiny monitors and spinning vinyl turntables making distorted sounds that look like scenes from a science fiction film or television. It’s a dark dystopia that you are transported into when you see the main gallery of Vinyl On Vinyl upon entry.
It is crowded and busy while guests go in and out just to grab some free grub and beer provided by the gallery itself. Quite the insanity if you just arrived late before the live sound installation and performance. The images do not justify the actual sound event when you are in the thick of it.
But then again, you can see how much the crowd was engaged at the peak of VOV’s gallery reception when they were running out of beer and the finger food has already been depleted by 9 PM. It does sound absurd but surely the images below can give you an idea of how truly the event was packed to the brims.
By 9:01 PM the crowd is still building up, and the replenished beer in cans is already gone, but the night belongs to Arvin Nogueras, who truly made sure everyone would hear his work and engage in his sound mixing at the same time appreciating how art performances are truly rare that you truly need to experience next time.
“Unruh(e)” by Arvin Nogueras is already on exhibit at Vinyl On Vinyl Gallery from 15 March to 8 April 2023. For more about this gallery and other exhibits just follow Vinyl on Vinyl via their social media on Facebook and Instagram!
