Jan Vorisek reconfigures spaces into immersive environments that challenge perceptions of power, desire, and identity. His installations combine industrial materials, found objects, performance, and sound to create multi-sensory experiences that blur the boundaries between the constructed and the organic. Vorisek’s work explores global systems of consumption, surveillance, and spatial hierarchies, often presenting labyrinthine structures that question dynamics of intimacy and control. He incorporates elements of chance and audience interaction, inviting viewers to actively navigate and interpret his installations. Drawing on his background in experimental music, Vorisek examines the commodification of art and culture, probing how societal systems influence personal and collective experience. His interdisciplinary approach blends physical space with sound and performance to investigate the intersections of materiality, technology, and social structures. By crafting environments that evoke both tension and openness, Vorisek encourages reflection on the complexities of contemporary life. His work invites audiences to critically engage with the hidden forces that shape perceptions, relationships, and identity in a globalized world. ...
