Phobias

Fear of insects or bugs.

Exploring the idea of phobias through a series of abstract illustrations. The idea of different psychological connections between the "fear of" and the "image of" specific phobias.

A phobia, is an irrational, intense, persistent fear of certain situations, activities, things, or people. The main symptom of this disorder is the excessive, unreasonable desire to avoid the feared subject. When the fear is beyond one's control, and if the fear is interfering with daily life, then a diagnosis under one of the anxiety disorders can be made.

The Rorschach Inkblot test is a psychological test in which subjects' perceptions of inkblots are recorded and then analyzed using psychological interpretation, complex scientifically derived algorithms, or both. Some psychologists use this test to examine a person's personality characteristics and emotional functioning. It has been employed to detect an underlying thought disorder, especially in cases where patients are reluctant to describe their thinking processes openly.

Robin Rhode x Leif Ove Andsnes

Berlin-based visual artist, Robin Rhode, and Grammy Award-winning Norwegian pianist, Leif Ove Andsnes, will collaborate in an exhibition to intertwine art and music.

"Leif Ove will be performing the piano recital, while Rhode has made a series of films that are to be are projected on screens behind the piano in an attempt to recreate the experience of looking at paintings while listening to Mussorgsky’s epic piano suite." via Yatzer

Rhode's visual imagery coincides with Mussorgsky's themes of self-realization, loss and rememberence. This beautiful collaboration between visual and audio performance highlights the emotional interconnectedness within all forms of art.








In another piece with Rhode and Andsnes called Chalk Piano, Rhode mimics the rhythms of the piano keys. Chalk Piano explores "the possibility of the piano as an instrument that could compose a picture, in this case with chalk if your imagination allows it to."
