BABY MOON
(a project by Chris Le and Anna Bremnes)
This is a project that explores collaboration as a format as well as the potential of a speculative approach.
Anna Bremnes and Chris Le’s “Baby Moon” explores the compatibility of their individual design and hybrid expression.
As an artistic strat
egy, they established themselves as main characters in a story about a moon in an unknown universe. “Baby Moon” echoes retro-futuristic film, cyberpunk architecture, video games, literature and photographs of the universe.
Anna and Chris abandon sci-fi motifs that allude to contemporary discussions of gender, sexuality, culture and environment in order to birth a new one. “Baby Moon”, a genderless moon, is the manifestation of their dual expression.
The story behind Baby Moon:
We come from different planets within the same solar system that share the same moon. Anna is from a cold planet and Chris is from a warm. The moon our planets share was originally a part of a larger moon. At one point it broke into two and one piece formed into a “Baby Moon”. “Baby Moon” does not rotate so there is a side we never see. On the dark side of the moon, Anna and Chris meet for the first time. Dark oceans and empty spaces inspire the two to form a new expression. Each planet in combination with darkness creates the formula 1 + 1 = 3
