Parade
Diamond and triangular shapes sequences Gibson / Martelli's Parade. Some shapes bear bright colour gradients, while others display a black and white, contrasting motif. Part of the duo's larger project MAN A, the piece places the viewer as a discoverer and bears different understanding layers. Indeed, while the work is reminiscent of tribal war paint and zebra stripes, the print conceals hidden motion-captured performers activated by a custom app. In doing so, the artists provide another depth to abstraction, whereby the device acts as revelatory to another realm of the piece.
