'Life Cycle'


Artist: Laure-Anne Jacobs


On Friday May 4th at 8 p.m., the Antwerp International Press Centre Flanders shows the virtual exhibition 'Life Cycle' by the artists Laure-Anne Jacobs (imaging) and Missfit (sound design). 'Life Cycle' is the fourth edition of a virtual exhibition series of the online art project Anina.be. The new exhibition presents the life cycle of people in digital imaging and sounds.


The exhibition 'Life Cycle' contains two parts. The first part - In the City - shows the visitor the confrontation between the daily live in the city with contemporary or recent world events. All these images are digitally mastered. The second part - Flash Greetings - shows the life cycle of the human being with ten portraits, also digitally mastered.


The models who are showed in Flash Greetings get also the possibility to spread their portraits as virtual greeting-cards into their online communities and the internet. Flash Greetings has an obvious interactive undertone, with online visitors getting the opportunity to pick up images from a moving screen, puzzling together a portrait and explore the virtual installation, following his own route. As a result, the exhibition becomes a personal experience for each visitor.


Anina.be is an initiative of Laure-Anne Jacobs. For the first time, she shows her own work on the virtual platform. Anina.be wants to create an interaction between artists from different disciplines, but also an interaction between the art and the public. For this edition, Laure-Anne Jacobs created a cooperation with sound artist Missfit (pseudonym for Aernoudt Jacobs), who created sound-effects for the images.
