The instalation – viewed as 3 superwide \/ seamless, largescale cinescope audiovisual wallpieces focuses on the general premise of aesthetic sexification and the pleasure of viewing force and warfare. Exuberant views of beautiful flames in super slowmotion, massive, cinematic, dust and terrain moving shockwaves, beautiful swarms of what could be seen as gold petals, only to be stinging as deadly wasps.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accompanied by an immersive soundtrack, each piece with a distinct score with an underlying shepard tone, combined in tune like an orchestra of magnum scale, only to trick our senses and mask the true, raw, real. \n \nEpique deals with our prejudice to the general, theatric image of warfare. What lies beyond the eye-catching, aesthetic, cinematic image? In raw reality, ruined lives, fallen cities, irrelevant to us, as only viewed from a safe, comfortable distance. \n \nNever trust your instincts, the root of pleasure, should always be questionable. \n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n

\u00a0BIO<\/span><\/p>\n

Maximilian Oprishka is an award winning multidisciplinary artist working in the fields of sound, visual language and new media.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

With an expressed interest in science, futurism and the dilemmas of forward thinking technologies, Maximilian explores these narratives through cinematic sound scores and photo-surrealist visual media.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>With works spanning across a multitude of mediums like multiple full length albums, numerous live performances, installations, scores for film and theatre plus visual works for world renowned clients like Google, Netflix, Lessloss or History Channel, with each new project Maximilian continues to merge and melt various genres to explore and narrate the \u201ctomorrow\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

Interest in design, arts and sound phenomena became second nature in Maximilian\u2019s youth (the Meinheld alias, first double vinyl album in 2012) through a mixture of various music and fine art schools, although, after a chain of curious events Maximilian landed in the department of philosophy for his studies. Not postponing the interest in arts, but while studying the likes of Hegel, Maximilian grew a fascination with the modern tradition of psychoanalyst\/societal connoisseurs like Lacan and Foucault – all of whom added to the fuelling interest of society\u2019s dilemmas, but transported to a future-technology realm.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Whilst the early bird Fume alias experiments began in 2013, not long after graduating the studies of philosophy, in 2015 Maximilian became the co-founder of an interdisciplinary design studio OPDN.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n
