About the Author
Luna Woelle, born in the year 2000, is a Slovenian 3DCG artist currently based in Tokyo. Graduating from a graphic design high school in Ljubljana she moved to Japan on a scholarship program to study Japanese traditional cuisine, driven by her interest and previous projects based on the art of Kaiseki presentation. With the start of the pandemic she found herself returning to digital art – starting with abstract, organic shapes, moving onto hard-surface modeling and experimenting with ‘Imaginary Robotics’.
So far, she has exhibited her work in Japan, Berlin, Miami, and Slovenia. She has also been published in a KIDZ book available in galleries, museums, and bookstores worldwide. Collaborating with brands like CASIO G-SHOCK and YAMAWA, she has successfully implemented her art style in various visual freelance projects.
Beyond visual art and design she is also a DJ, performing at venues in Japan and abroad. She co-founded a music label Mizuha 罔象 and was involved as a manager and curator.
MoTA LAB is a new Ljubljana gallery focusing on sound, kinetic, light and other artworks, hosting the non-permanent art collection Arte:Facts of the Museum of Transitory Art – MoTA, premieres of young local talents and works by established intermedia artists. It functions as a working laboratory, an exhibition gallery and occasionally as a venue for social events, performances and workshops. Located in a monumental 1970s pavilion on Celovška Street, its glass structure allows direct communication between the interior and the surroundings.
The project was supported by Municipality of Ljubljana and Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Slovenia.
