In October 2014, EEPMON was invited by Algonquin College to perform a live iteration of his Intersections series on campus at the AC Hub in Ottawa. Over the course of three days, students and faculty were able to witness the “digital artisan” process firsthand as a large-scale physical work was brought to life through a blend of traditional painting and generative concepts.
The final composition was uniquely influenced by the environmental conditions of the performance. With a weather forecast dominated by clouds and rain, the atmosphere of the campus translated into a specific colour palette for Intersections 12, resulting in a piece defined by deep blue and vibrant magenta hues. This live installation allowed for a direct dialogue between the artist and the academic community, highlighting the spontaneous relationship between an artist’s surroundings and their creative output.
Project Details:
∙ Location: Algonquin College (AC Hub), Ottawa, Ontario
