For my DIY excursion in March, my friend Melody and I traveled into Paris to the Atelier des Lumieres. This art studio is used by to illuminate exhibits onto its wall using projectors to immerse people into a world of art. The specific exhibit we attended included a program about Vincent Van Gogh, Japanese art, and a piece titled "Verse." People are free to sit and enjoy or peruse around the room. I personally have always enjoyed Van Gogh's art. It was truly a unique experience to see a timeline of his major works like Starry Night, A Self Portrait, Almond Blossoms, and Sunflowers. Additionally, the exhibitionists like to promote different kinds of music. This is shown in the diverse types of music they overlap during the presentation. There was everything from opera to classical to jazz and more. Next, the Japanese art brought an abundance of color and sounds. It featured famous paintings like The Great Wave off Kanagawa which was animated to make the waves look real. The video artists truly made me feel like I was inside of the painting in a dreamy state. Japanese art has never struck any kind of cord with me, but seeing it in this way made me want to learn more about it. It was a very animated and unique style with fine lines and drastic colors. This contrasted with Van Gogh's softer lines and blurred pictures of portraits. The final piece called "Verse" was slightly anti-climatic. It was quite a short lasting maybe a few minutes where as the others were at least around 15 minutes each. It was created to immerse one into the universe of space, but it was slightly disappointing. Overall, I discovered many painting of Japan and Vincent Van Gogh that I have not seen before. This company allows people to view art in a whole new way that is very special for all ages and kinds of people. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience.
