About the artists: For Lvis Mejía, art and music have the capacity to transcend their earthly mediums while being deeply intwined in a sense of place and community. As a contemporary artist and electronic producer, his oeuvre takes on multiple forms and expressions. Intermedia art covering the scope of audiovisual performance, electro-acoustic and symphonic music, conceptual art as well as video and film. The affinity for writing comprehends also an essential part of his artistic output. At their core, Mejíaʼs work focus on the recurrent Why behind the mediums, a discourse triggered by the most essential contiguity where thoughts, emotions and aesthetics converge and blossom. .................................... DEKJ functions as an ongoing project studying sound as the primary axis of actual dynamics, behavior and instances. Considering the sonic and vibrational milieu as a representative for balance, transgression, violation, that also affects physical composition and the notion of structured spaces. ..................................... smog is a sound artist focusing on the phenomenon of experimentation. Using electroacoustic methods combined with digital and analogue processing,his approach takes roots in a diversity of styles such as: techno, industrial, percussion based music as well as ambient where ethereal soundscapes navigate between distorted metallic noise and flittering overtones.
