TEC ART in collaboration with Lumus Instruments presents “Radiant Voids”, an exhibition at the junction of art and technology inside the spaces of Katoenhuis | Rotterdam's Immersive Experience Hub.

The debut show to awaken the halls of Katoenhuis with the immersive works of leading Dutch new media artists was open during Rotterdam Art Week 2024. Nestled within the open spaces of a former cotton warehouse in the emerging M4H area, this first exhibition breathed life into its space, transforming emptiness into an experience of warped perception.

Each area within this industrial monument inhabited a work of art that distorted realities and played with one’s perception. Step into the vast spaces of Katoenhuis that are transmorphed with large audiovisual installations into a full-body sensory experience, blurring the line between artificial and real.

​

Featuring works of Lumus Instruments, Boris Acket, Robin Beekman, Elsemarijn Bruys, Timo Lejeune, and Simone Smelt.

Lumus Instruments present "Polynode VI", showcasing extended lines of light that sculpt a spatial instrument, and “Actualization”, where vectors of light create geometries that continually morph and transform. Boris Acket’s work “Einder/Wind” manipulates fabric into diverse shapes propelled by an array of fans. Collaborating with Acket, Elsemarijn Bruys presents "Of Other Spaces", featuring reflective foils that subtly vibrate, transforming spaces into entangled mosaics before reverting to their original form. Simone Smelt’s “Reflecting Bodies” creates an interplay of light, where volumes and textures sculpted from aluminum diffuse in multiple directions, fostering a playful and experimental environment for light and reflection. Robin Beekman presents an array of 360-degree light fixtures in the “Depth Array” luring the audience into a state reminiscent of hypnosis. Timo Lejeune’s digital work “Undetermined” draws inspiration from chaos theory, exploring how simple rules give rise to beautiful complexity.
