ESPACIO DE CONTINGENCIA

Filed under: Art contemporain, Photographie, Spectacle, Vidéo – Film | Tags: |

Contingency space is the gradual transformation of a physical space through different elements that are related at different levels of perception, language and meaning. Multiple possibilities of relationship between different information levels are linked in a common area.
