Counterspace by jiwa

Description

*Counterspace* explores the energetic principles of code, randomness, and digital spaces. *Counterspace* builds on the ideas of Joseph Beuys, who believed that anyone maintaining acute attentiveness can gain access to a place beyond physics and natural spacetime. From this awareness, one can begin to explore *Counterspace*. The work examines the dividing lines between adjacent spaces. It’s animated, yet possesses a quality of stillness; pixelated, yet soft; two-dimensional, yet providing access to a third, even fourth, dimension left to be discovered by the viewer. *Counterspace* has been shown in diverse formats as a solo exhibition at Galerie Met in Berlin from January 30th to February 28th, 2026. The exhibition also explores these divisions, displaying works both in the room and in the runtime. Physical objects hang on walls, fixed in location. Live code is decentralized, presented behind a screen, serving as a gateway into digital space. The digital works exhibit the final resting place, and have been curated to display the potential energy the code represents. The printed works capture ephemeral moments leading up to, and no longer present in, the final algorithm. *Counterspace* explores this tension between human and computer, physical and digital, natural spacetime and what lies beyond. The work is fully responsive, with a hidden interaction to be found. Press “s” to save a still image.
