Exploring the Holographic
Exploring the Holographic
Martina Mrongovius captures urban environments in assembled photomontages she prints into holographic images. Her artworks investigate how perception shapes experience and are often installed in ways that provoke viewers to move. In this lecture Martina will discuss how her artworks were inspired by holographic imaging and navigating the urban landscape.
This lecture is being offered both as an ADFAS lecture and as a lecture in the annual lecture program of the Newcastle Branch of the Royal Society of NSW.
Martina’s solo exhibitions have been presented by galleries and museums in Berlin, Seoul, Melbourne, Cologne, Ghent and New York and she has been part of group shows in Taiwan, Canada, UK and Portugal.
As a curator for the Center for the Holographic Arts, New York (2009-2021) Martina developed the exhibitions INTERFERENCE:COEXISTENCE (Long Island City Clocktower, 2013), HOLOGRAPHIC EMBODIMENT (HoloCenter on Governors Island, 2019), LIGHT WINDOWS (worldwide 2020 & 2021) and the SPACE:LIGHT program.
Through a collaborative research project she created a series of holograms that will be launched on a CubeSat from the International Space Station.
Martina received an Honors degree in Applied Physics (2004) and completed her PhD about relational emergence with holographic images, at the Spatial Information Architecture Laboratory (RMIT University, 2012).
Since 2021 she has been shaping the Lake Arts Precinct for Lake Macquarie City Council (Awabakal Country).
