Film Screeing Sacred Futurism - New Media Art by Rebecca Nie and Collaborators Wonzimer Gallery, Los Angeles 341 S Ave, 17 Los Angeles 90031 Sunday (April 21st) Doors 7 PM Screening Starts at 8 PM Q&A With Artist at 8:20 PM Healing, wisdom, and heritage are the underlying commonalities for the three dynamic new media art pieces by Rebecca Nie and her collaborators. An award-winning artist and published author, Nie collaborates with highly accomplished musicians to create audio-visual installations that artistically aid the audience in connecting with their subconsciousness and intuition. By doing so, the artists invite the audience to experience the sublime directly and tap into the profound healing wisdom innate to every human being. Rebecca Nie is an award-winning new media artist, published author, and spiritual advisor who lives and works in Northern California. As a contemporary heir of one of the world’s oldest living mystic orders, she creates to artistically aid the audience in connecting with their unconsciousness and intuition. By doing so, Nie hopes to invite the audience to directly experience the sublime and tap into the profound healing wisdom innate to every human being. The inspiration for Nie’s works comes from her inner work, global adventures, and attainment in diverse disciplines. Nie spent over a decade rigorously studying classical representational artmaking and attended college-level classes at art institutions throughout her formal education. In parallel, Nie intentionally expanded her horizon and added depth to her investigation of lights, colors, and forms by studying them from scientific perspectives. She attended the University of Toronto and graduated as a high-distinction scholar with dual degrees specializing in quantum optics and mathematics. Nie subsequently graduated from Stanford University with a graduate degree in applied physics. Another dimension of depth in Nie’s art comes from her training and dedication to engaged mysticism. Nie’s art and introspections are an integrated whole: she lets go of her limited self to allow the lines, colors, and textures to come forth from a mystical center in her being and knows that it is the source through which we are all connected. When not creating art, Nie can be found developing algorithms that interlace mathematical and artistic beauty, translating ancient texts, or practicing Zen yoga, which Nie learned by the Ganges River and in China’s sacred mountains.
