Flux, 2025

Flux (2025) is an immersive field of darkness, light, and surround sound that suspends orientation. Within this dark void of space, micro-moments of light appear at intervals, painting afterimages on the viewer’s retinas. Ghostly luminescent auras flicker and vanish as if space were expanding into another realm. Kurt Hentschläger’s focus is not on spectacle but on the psychology of perception: how the body and senses recalibrate and adapt in unstable conditions, creating a heightened sense of presence.
Viewers drift, listen, and slow down as the minimal environment writes and erases itself around them. The work’s intensity is balanced by calm, a lucid dream of photons and air, where edges blur and time feels elastic.
