Tune in to WGXC 90.7-FM on Saturday, July 16 from 4 to 6 p.m. for a special afternoon spent with guest artists Lovid. LoVid is an interdisciplinary artist duo composed of Tali Hinkis and Kyle Lapidus. Their work includes live video installations, sculptures, digital prints, patchworks, media projects, performances, and video recordings. LoVid combines many opposing elements in their work, contrasting hard electronics with soft patchworks, analog and digital, or handmade and machine produced objects. This multidirectional approach is also reflected in the content of LoVid's work: romantic and aggressive, wireless and wire-full. Hinkis and Lapidus are interested in the ways in which the human body and mind observe, process, and respond to both natural and technological environments, and in the preservation of data, signals, and memory.
LoVid has toured the US and Europe extensively performing, exhibiting, and lecturing at the Museum of Modern Art, New York, P.S.1, The Neuberger Museum, The Butler Institute of American Art , Exit Art, Evolution Festival (UK), The Kitchen, RISD, Massachusetts College of Art, Kansas City Art Institute, Chicago Art Institute, University of Wisconsin, Futuresonic Festival (UK), The New Museum of Contemporary Art, Ocularis, and Institute of Contemporary Art London among many others. LoVid has been artist-in-residence at Eyebeam, free103point9 Wave Farm, Harvestworks, iEAR, Alfred University, and Stevens Institute of Technology, has received grants and awards from Experimental TV Center, NYSCA, Foundation for Contemporary Arts, turbulence.org, and Greenwall Foundation.
