LoVid

Kids at a Noise Show

About the video

For Kids at a Noise Show, LoVid combed through their 2002-2016 personal photo and video archives to assess the components of art spaces and institutions that welcomed them as artist-parents. The video includes interviews with artists, curators, and administrators they have worked with since the birth of their three children (Rama, Dlisah, and Lo’am), highlighting the ways in which they were able to integrate their family and their professional commitments. The animated family album includes images from flyers and various printed materials, celebrating the avant guard, not-for-profit, and artists-run global art community.  Interviews include: Bj Warshaw, Carol Parkinson, Cory Arcangel, Hanna Fushihara Aron, Irene Moon, Jason Bernagozzi, Jon Satrom, Katherine Liberovskaya,  Lauren Rosati, Lea Bertucci, Lori Felker, and Paul Luckraft, among others.

Biography

LoVid is a NY-based interdisciplinary artist duo working collaboratively since 2001. LoVid’s practice focuses on aspects of contemporary society where technology seeps into human culture and perception. Throughout their interdisciplinary projects over two decades, LoVid has maintained their signature visual and sonic aesthetic of color, pattern, and texture density, with disruption, and noise. LoVid’s work captures an intermixed world layered with virtual and physical, materials and simulations, connection and isolation. Over the decades LoVid worked across disciplines including immersive installations, sculptural synthesizers, single-channel videos, textile paintings, digital objects, mobile media cinema, works on paper, audiovisual and participatory performances, and stained glass.
