”Land Me” By Linda Bujoli, in collaboration with AIR text by Noemie Sebayashi

   

Dear Shaded Viewers,

"Land Me" is an installation that offers the viewer a sensory experience through photography, sculpture and music. 

Linda Bujoli has worked for one year on this project, taking into account the time that has passed from the moment  the idea of a sensorial triangle: Sight, Touch, Sound, was conceived. 

The multifaceted artist invited us to her closing cocktail party at l'espace Jam's where the light was  half bright half dark. The sculpture and the photographs are brought in to the light. The main color of the show is black which reveals the contrast with the art work.  

   

A sculpture of a nude woman kneeling down, curiously merged with a cubic speaker, is in the middle of the gallery and the cubic speaker  extricates a soundrack signed by Air. The totally black sculpture is on a massive black block.

The art work is musical with an electronic music system  inside the existing block which will enable its future owner  to appreciate his/her personal playlist.

The title of Air rising from the cubic speaker sounds like a smooth and melancholy ballad, a siren song comes with a stirring piano composition.The musical genre fits perfectly with the whole universe of Linda. 

(The buyer will have the privilage of posessing this exclusive record lasting 10 minutes via a bluetooth function and a remote control to complete the double functionality of the oeuvre).

 

Spectators contemplate 12 numbered photographs, backed with an aluminum sheet of 80×80 cm. Nude women in movement, dancing to the rhythm of the psychedelic soundtrack, parts of their bodies  blurred by the speed effect, create confusion between the shadows and the real material.  A dark majesty emanates from the pieces, their nudity reminds one of  the Amazons and Egyptian goddesses.
