SAVE is an artistic and scientific laboratory that explores chemical, physical knowledge in the context of artistic reflection. The space for work in the field of living, digital, technological.

« The project explores the following topics: behavioral matter, quantum sensitivity, the interaction of mind and living matter, micro performance, hybrid art, eco-art. We are interested in a return to the body, which is “sealed” into digital space today in our opinion. We wanted to « print out » the body, get as close to the body as possible, examining the contact of the body and substance (menthol) in the form of performative action, creating the act of crystallization of a person. It is also interesting for us to consider nature, its unknown algorithms, to consider its behavior more closely. And this close contact of a natural phenomenon of crystallization and a person (almost their merging) gives rise to new forms of feelings, hybrid feelings and new forms of life.The project reveals the theme of the hybridity of the body, human consciousness and natural matter, explores the theme of new feelings and new bodily experience.The project explores the theme of the “living”. What can we call alive and what are its signs? The project proposes to fantasize about “natural oases”, where a human being and nature will communicate with each other on a subtle level, maybe telepathically, living a joint experience. »
