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.

Museum of Transitory Art

MoTA –

Museum of Transitory Art

MoTA is a multidisciplinary platform dedicated to advancing the research, production and presentation of transitory, experimental, and live art forms.

MoTA is a museum without a permanent collection or a fixed space. Instead, its programs are realised in different locations and contexts in temporary physical and virtual spaces.

MoTA organizes and supports transitory art in the form of continuous events, exhibitions and educational programs both locally and internationally. As its name indicates, MoTA examines what a museum can be today and in the future.

MoTA is in constant search for the new, the uncertain, and the undefined.

MoTA works on several continuous programmes & projects. We run MoTA Point – a Space for Art & Ideas, we curate and produce the annual SONICA Festival, in addition to regular music programmes such as SONICA Series and SONICA Classics.

Within the years of running our residency programme, we’ve established T.R.I.B.E. – a network of residency spaces in the Balkans & Eastern Europe.

We’ve also initiated the research and archive platforms ArtistTalk.eu and Mediateque MoTA & Tomaž Brate. Our educational programmes serve a broader audience with ongoing workshops, talks, symposia, and internships.
