One of The Best Art Installations of 2013

One of the most magnificent artworks of 2013 I would call "Little Magnificent" which is an installation made by young artists Gediminas Šiaulys and Andrius Kirvela. This example of a digital contemporary art tells us a fairy tale in a modern way where a composition of simple objects becomes a three dimensional screen. A harmony between shape of figures, visuals which are projected on those figures and hypnotizing music brings a spectator to the warm fantasy world, somewhere near childhood.

Here is video of this installation filmed at Contemporary Art Center in Vilnius, Lithuania. 

No other installation fascinated me so much this year like an artwork by these Lithuanian artists. One of the reasons why it is so strong is that the spirit and the body of an artwork ideally fits each other.  Well crafted visuals and sound creates an aura of a fairy tale (spirit) and then a spectator is amazed by the surprising technique how the visuals appear on blank figures (body). In that way it endorses the sense of a mystique and brings viewer even more into a stance of  a childish dream.

This installation was made as a scenography for a theater play "Daddy's Tale", where an imagination of an audience was manipulated by using a combination of modern technologies and live acting.
