Portals is part of an ongoing exploration of creating 3D architectural spaces based on images generated by electronic signals. Portals suggests a visit within a modular structure. Its configuration is constantly changing until it reaches the culminating point where an holographic portal is being revealed. This revelation seems to bring the video to a different level, which is vaguely reminiscent of the structure of some video games.
Sabrina Ratté (Canada, 1982) est une artiste vidéo établie à Montréal. Elle a complété un Baccalauréat et une Maîtrise en Beaux-Arts dans le programme de Production Cinématographique à l’Université Concordia.
Son travail vidéo est marqué par le mélange de technologies analogiques et numériques, à partir desquelles sont créés des environnements qui basculent jusque dans l’abstraction. Sa pratique est également ancrée dans la tradition performative qui allie musique électronique et art vidéo, ce qui l’emmène à collaborer sur des bases régulières avec des musiciens, dont le compositeur Roger Tellier-Craig. Ensemble, ils forment également un duo audio-visuel, Le Révélateur.
