LIMITLESS at MERCER LABS, Museum of Art and Technology

Mercer Labs, Museum of Art and Technology, newly opened in Lower Manhattan at 21 Dey Street, is co-founded by Michael Cayre and Roy Nachum.

“Mercer Labs, the Museum of Art and Technology, redefines the museum experience. The experimental institution stands at 36,000 square ft and emerged in the heart of downtown New York City. Through fifteen exhibition spaces, interactive multisensory experiences, unique 4D sound listening encounters and installations featuring LED mirrored infinity rooms and 16K projections, the symbiotic relationship between art and technology is reimagined.

Mercer Labs currently presents Limitless, the inaugural exhibition by Nachum. In Limitless, he transitions between narrative and abstraction, inviting exploration of the intricate spatial framework of source imagery and technical direction. His experimental approach incorporates elements from art history, conceptualism and interactivity, to confront conventional artistic boundaries and explore sensory substitution, hypnagogic imagery, internal representations, and mental rotation.” — Mercer Labs

Nachum said, “My hope is to give a heightened sense of involvement to the viewer. It’s not about what I have created, it’s about how viewers complete it through their own unique experience or interaction. The function of art is to see the world with new eyes.”
