Artist Statement

Open Workshop in a Public Space (2014)

The Destruction Lab is a happening that takes place in a public space in which the artists perform different processes of destruction. These include chemical, such as dissolution in solvents and electrolysis, physical, such as heat from furnaces, or use of power tools, and abstract, such as erasing digital files. The public is invited to participate through a variety of means, creating a coordinated artistic process.

• Bruno Vianna (Brazil) is a filmmaker producing projects at the intersection of narrative and interactivity. He currently co-runs Nuvem Rural, an art laboratory dedicated to collaborative projects, autonomous art and technology for social development.
