\n<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Arcadia \u00a0is an imaginary \u00a0city in the piantadelmondo \u00a0series by Andr\u00e9 Sier, pointing \u00a0towards visions and stories of untold \u00a0natural wilderness of spatial formation. \u00a0In this work, visitors sight-see, navigate \u00a0and travel inside the apparently infinite spatium \u00a0of Arcadia, often encountering and interacting with autonomous \u00a0swarms of unknown elements, which apparently merge and fold space \u00a0in Arcadia’s spatium. By moving in front of the projection visitors \u00a0control and interact with\u00a0<\/span>their \u00a0point of \u00a0view on Arcadia.<\/span><\/p>\n

\nk.~ \u00a0is a \u00a0sonic land-surveyor \u00a0of infinite spaces. A \u00a0three dimensional voyage \u00a0in continuos space through \u00a0sound. Infinite (32bit limited) \u00a0spaces are enumerated randomly, as \u00a0k. goes to new levels, crossing an ever \u00a0ending abstract maze. Sound input via computer’s \u00a0microphone controls the navigation of k. in the abstract \u00a03d space. Different pitches trigger distinct actions.<\/i>

 <\/p>\n

Know \u00a0oh brother… \u00a0the study of sensible \u00a0geometry evokes skill in \u00a0all practical arts, while the \u00a0study of intelligible geometry evokes \u00a0skill in the intellectual arts because \u00a0this science is one of the portals through \u00a0which we move towards the knowledge of the essence \u00a0of the soul, and this is the root of all knowledge…\u035f \u00a0– Rasa\u2019il Brotherhood of Purity, translated by S.H. Nasr Symmetry\u2019s \u00a0Portal is an exhibition by the artist Margarida Sardinha, that has over \u00a0a lengthy period of time, been extensively focused on the concepts of symmetry \u00a0and optical illusion. The exhibition expands geometrically a wide photographic survey \u00a0of the Alhambra in Granada documented by the artist. This photographic assemblage is digitally \u00a0transformed to deconstruct symmetry and to generate illusory semblances. Thus, Symmetry\u2019s Portal is \u00a0a series of optical illusions where the symmetric and random are diluted in works containing a digital \u00a0background photograph and a three-dimensional polyhedron overlaying it; where symmetry\u2019s isometrism is deconstructed \u00a0or complemented by the three-dimensional polyhedra and its\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>image\u2019s \u00a0similitude \u00a0evokes various \u00a0illusory spatiotemporal \u00a0dimensions. This multidimensional \u00a0interlace lies both in three-dimensional \u00a0photographic works of large format as well \u00a0as in the experimental film that constitute the \u00a0showcase. The thirty works and the film \u035eSymmetry\u2019s \u00a0Portal\u035f which comprise the exhibition were devised connecting \u00a0the geometric and mathematical descriptions of Keith Critchlow – \u00a0where the study of Islamic patterns is analysed via metaphysical and \u00a0cosmological principles -, Marcus du Sautoy and Roger Penrose. Symmetry\u2019s \u00a0Portal has been exhibited as a solo show at the Aga Khan Foundation Ismaili \u00a0Crentre of Lisbon in 2015, at Carousell London in 2016, at Ericeira Cultural Centre \u00a0in 2014 and at Capela do Solar dos P\u00f3voas in Simp\u00f3sio Internacional de Arte Contempor\u00e2nea \u00a0of Guarda in 2017. A selection of works and the film were also curated by Neil McConnon for \u00a0the Reflectios exhibition at London\u2019s Opera Gallery in 2015.<\/span><\/p>\n
