In this huge wave, in the liquid community, individuals search for the group they can belong to, and search for their position, just like a particle searching for its 3D coordinates under the traction of virtual forces in fluid simulation software. Empty Space focuses on the keyword “Liquidity”, inspired by Zygmunt Bauman’s research on Post-modernity. He described modernisation as a process of liquefaction from the start.
It takes change as the only permanence, emphasises speed and flexibility in time, and the obsessive, compulsive, unstoppable modernisation.

Vvzela Kook is a new media artist who mainly works in audiovisual mediums, including performance, theatre, computer graphics, and drawing. Kook’s video works combine technology with her artistic practice to reproduce and convert urban cityscapes into an integrated virtual experience, guiding the audience on a cybernetic journey.
