MENTAGRAMM I

Alexander Nickl is a light artist and neoprojectionist. Over a period of nine years he has worked on ‘mentagrams’ – an exceptional artistic project that is documented extensively in the Viennese MENTAGRAM MANIFESTO. The works of ‘Mr K’, Nickl’s artistic alter ego, are mental processes in the form of images and signs that appear spontaneously and intuitively. We encounter self-organisation, play, language, media, humanity and the environment. At the same time, Nickl examines and documents his artistic process with scientific meticulousness, blurring the lines between science and art.
