Pierre Huyghe : Liminals

In the organizer's words:

LAS Art Foundation presents the new commissioned work Liminals by artist Pierre Huyghe at Halle am Berghain, which uses quantum experiments to explore concepts of uncertainty.

The large-format installation comprises film, sound, vibrations and light. The film, which the artist describes as a "modern myth", follows the emergence of a faceless, human-like figure that passes through various states. According to Huyghe, the action is set "outside of time and space, where there is no beginning and no end, no inside and no outside, just an incessant dance of matter in which every moment is a maybe. We experience the character's attempts to exist and to escape a single state of reality or consciousness. In the process, the boundaries between the inner and outer worlds and between living and inanimate matter begin to dissolve."

The commissioned work transports us to a place where the boundaries between body, environment and consciousness become blurred. It lingers in that moment before our perception becomes stable and various possibilities exist simultaneously. Here, something takes shape that, according to Huyghe, is something "radically alien" to human subjectivity - a quantum reality characterized by indeterminacy and multiplicity. By placing a human-like body in this unstable world, he confronts us with the question of whether we can even comprehend such a reality and under what conditions it would be possible for us to experience several states of being at the same time.
