Location: Lower Ground Floor

Nikolai is a visual artist specialising in drawing and painting:

"My normal approach is a spontaneous start with meticulous finish. I hardly ever plan what I’m going to do, just begin with gesture and rhythm and see where it takes me. Elements, like loose associations and metaphors, fit into place, as I go.

Live digital performances with Tagtool are a logical extension of this practice. I tend to be more spontaneous with DIY Tagtool, as with Tagtool app you have to think and plan more, but I often switch between Tagtool app and the DIY version in the course of one session.

For my visuals with on&off I use old-style DIY Tagtool, as it allows to create continuous moving and evolving visual stream of consciousness."
