Nikunja creates trans-media art with the emergence between experimental painting,

art-performance, video-art, sound-art, installation-art, art-cinema

inside of a multilayered phenomenological field of split authority and temporary autonomous zone for his audience.

This sphere of emergence he conceptualized as Interactive Matter since 1995.

    This new album of UncoppenSaw explores the tension in-between the micro and macrocosmic, the planet and the body, the frequency-break allowing evolution and progressive transcendence. These disharmonic breaks – the hot breeze - are not violent, they are inspired by the will to exit the limits of the harmonious as the ever-returning confirming calculus of the repetition of perception, the wallowing in the bath of nostalgic return, lying trumping comfort.

    The world of Now requires the big break in each of us, individually and collectively to escape the blood and flesh soaked trenches of fascist egotism. Our Art proposes the unconditional therefore liberating progress to freedom, is in itself an act and force (by playing and listening) of resistance.

    Clashing bells of time, shattered glass! Listen, act, get back to us!

2024>>>

Traveling through transcultural spaces, the incantation of MANGLIK invokes the transcendence and breaking of the cosmical bondage linked to the human endeavour. Deep listening to the evolution of this mantra, one crosses limitations of feeling, thinking and acting destroying preconceived perceptions. Mannee's invocation of the Sanskrit mantra is building the armour of the Hindi goddess Kali protecting all parts of your body and freeing your dharma.
