Venice Biennale Selected Artists

As the Venice Biennale approaches, Gazelli Art House presents a selection of works by artists from across the gallery's programme who are currently realising projects in the city. Marshmallow Laser Feast unveils a new immersive installation as part of As Above, So Below, translating whale vocalisations into generative visual environments that explore deep-ocean ecologies and interconnection. Elnara Nasirli presents a new chapter of Whispering Forest, a site-responsive installation of natural wooden forms activated by movement and sound, reflecting on living systems and environmental rhythms. Chris Levine will also present an ambitious new laser work during the opening week in the form of a major site-specific installation. Meanwhile, Primavera De Filippi participates in Strange Rules at Palazzo Diedo, an interdisciplinary project curated by Mat Dryhurst, Holly Herndon, and Hans Ulrich Obrist.

Marshmallow Laser Feast

Marshmallow Laser Feast [Ersin Han Ersin (b. 1984), Barnaby Steel (b. 1978) & Robin McNicholas (b. 1979)] is a London based experiential artist collective reinterpreting ideas of human perception and experience. Employing a wealth of creative disciplines and underpinned by research, they invite participants to navigate with a sensory perception beyond the everyday. In collaboration with artists, scientists, musicians, poets, programmers, and engineers, MLF has been leaving a slug trail of sensory experiences as they journey through the cosmos. Fusing architectural tools, contemporary imaging techniques and performance with tactile forms, they sculpt spaces that lay dormant until animated by playful investigation. Their works have been included in major exhibitions and institutions including; the Barbican Centre, Factory International, YCAM, DDB Seoul, Sundance Film Festival, Montreal, SXSW and Lisbon Architectural Triennale.

Primavera De Filippi

Primavera De Filippi is an artist and legal scholar at Harvard University, exploring the intersection between art, law and technology, focusing specifically on the legal and political implications of blockchain technology. Her artistic practice instantiates the key findings of her research in the physical world, creating blockchain- based lifeforms that evolve and reproduce themselves as people feed them with cryptocurrencies. Her works have been exhibited in various museums, galleries and art fairs around the world including: Ars Electronica and Francisco Carolinum, Linz; HeK Museum of Digital Arts, Basel; Kate Vass Gallery, Zurich; Furtherfield Gallery and Kinetica Art Fair, UK; Centre Pompidou, Grand Palais, Gaité Lyrique, and Le Cent Quatre, Paris; Palazzo Cipolla and Biennale di Venezia, Italy; Fort Mason Center For Arts & Culture, San Francisco; as well as festivals such as Burning Man, Nevada, Fusion Festival, Germany and Synesthesia, Portugal, and online galleries like Feral File.

Chris Levine

Chris Levine (b. 1960) is a contemporary artist with an expansive and experimental practice. His multi-disciplinary approach harnesses a diverse array of technology with the unyielding intention of revealing the ways in which light is fundamental to human experience. Driven by a desire to expand perception, his work encourages a meditative engagement with the present moment. This spiritually motivated, philosophical, approach has allowed him to navigate unchartered territory in new media: positioning him at the forefront of exploring how technologies such as holograms and lasers can contribute to the story of art and creative endeavours. Levine’s site-specific and large-scale outdoor light installations have been exhibited in locations including Durham Cathedral, Radio City Hall, and Glastonbury festival. His groundbreaking portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, titled Lightness of Being (2008), is an internationally known work.

Elnara Nasirli

Elnara Nasirli (b.1987) is an artist rooted in environmental technology, drawing inspiration from the intersection of biotechnology and mixed media. Her work transcends conventional boundaries, weaving together painting, sculpture, collage, and installation to construct boundless biomorphic realms. Guided by the Greek roots of ‘bios’ (life) and ‘morphe’ (form), Nasirli’s visual language evokes the essence of organic shapes and forms. The installations she created beckon viewers into immersive audio-visual odysseys, inviting exploration of diverse facets of the human experience, self-expression, and the natural world. Recent solo exhibitions include Fluxus Frequency Collective at Gazelli Art House, Baku (2023), No Man’s Sky: Braiding Sweetgrass, MOMA Tbilisi, Georgia (2023) and Radix: Radical Root Explorations, QGallery Berlin (2023).
