Researcher: Prologue / Sci-Fi Short Film by Vladislav Solovjov
Russian motion CG artist Vladislav Solovjov (CG Generalist at Ruroc Ltd) shares his long-waited project “Researcher: Prologue”, here is what he says about the film:
“It's the first part of my sci-fi short film I've been working on since 2015. For more than 4 years I created different ideas and concepts until I found the best technical way to bring my story to life. The most difficult part of this project was the animation. It's the first time ever when I was animating a character. I'm glad I had this amazing experience. And I'll try to improve what I've done in the next part of this short film. This full CG project is split into three logical parts and I will be releasing each of them separately.”

Contemplate by Slava Thisset
Slava Semenuta known as Thisset shares his latest work Contemplate and the words about it:
“This video tells a simple story of any thinking person who is looking for meaning of existence.
A person who is both suffering and enjoying life.
I showed this story in a peculiar way and with my own vision of the world.
In this short music film, there is a share of madness and surrealism.
I wrote an abstract script and was the director of this video and I also drew fonts to decorate the video.
The font is designed in a style that imitates plants and smoke to enhance the surrealistic atmosphere.”

Woman In Veil
“We provisionally give the name differance to this sameness which is not identical: by the silent writing of its a, it has the desired advantage to referring to differing; both as spacing / temporalizing and as the movement that structures every dissociation”
The Beginning (Winged Lion of Mosul)
Following artist’s statement, “Differance is the questioning of inherent power structures within cultural, linguistic, technological or societal systems. By making this non-identical sameness at the heart of my art-making, I mimic, imitate, copy, tweak and ultimately alter these structures. I then present something visually familiar to the viewer while keeping this spacing at the forefront of their experience.
This process has two aims; firstly I wish to make these systems apparent to you, viewers, so as to question your own relation to it. Secondly, by giving a new understanding to what we know, I reveal the fragility of these systems and the possibility for individuals and communities to interact, take part in it, and reshape it.
No structure is infallible, nothing is stable ; the world is an ever changing photograph.”

Meditative Design is a creative extension of Krista Kim’s art practice, as she creates a meditative universe of the future.
“From the experience of the coronavirus pandemic that has gripped the world over the past two months, I realized that meditation is a universal tool to help us manage future instability and stress responses from massive disruption caused by future pandemic risk, climate change and automation. It is inevitable that our future will be unstable and chaotic for many years to come.
The world is ready to seek spiritually driven changes of how our civilization and economy are structured. Meditation has become a scientifically proven practice for the well-being of the individual and therefore, the well-being of society and the world. Millions of us are meditating en mass like never before and social media is helping us build community around it.
While in quarantine, I became inspired to create my vision of a world of meditativeness; my vision of how the practice of meditation can also be integrated into our every day lives through art, architecture, design and fashion. My vision is of a future based on the individual practice of meditation, extending to every aspect of our every day lives. I am inspired by Japanese Zen art, architecture and design. It’s very existence has shaped the world culture in profound ways, and will continue to impact art and design as it lives through my creations.
I believe there is hope for the future if more people meditate. We will manage stress, but most importantly, we can tap into our maximum creative potential. More than ever, creativity and collaboration are the antidote to fear and war. Beauty, collaboration, co-creation and meditation are the attributes that we must focus on collectively and globally in order to thrive and navigate opportunity amidst the chaos of disruption.
“I hope that we all gain insight, wisdom and compassion from this pandemic. I hope you are inspired to create a beautiful world.”

Takashi Kuribayashi
The work by Japanese artist Takashi Kuribayashi (1968) explores the boundaries that separate human civilization from the natural world. Kuribayashi was struck by the division of Germany into Eastern and Western states, which led him into an on-going consideration in various media of the theme boundaries.
His work is the outcome of being confronted with ‘restricted zones’ or ‘no-go areas’ in the aftermath of the Fukushima nuclear accident. Being faced with the impossible long-lasting and yet invisible borders, he set himself to investigate this and making these borders visible in his work by weaving a new flow of time with his installations.
“The truth resides in places that are invisible. Once you are aware of that there is a different world out of sight, you will be living in a different way.”
