Ramón Bonilla's "Illuminati DIA"
"Illuminati
DIA" is a site specific installation by Denver-based artist Ramón Bonilla,is an immersive space slightly inspired
by Denver’s airport surrounding conspiracy speculations and by the current
perception of legitimate and illegitimate knowledge. The concepts examined
through Illuminati DIA resonate through its space in the form of wall and
window murals, audiovisual and tridimensional elements as well as the use of
light.
Merging seemingly incompatible concepts into an
experiential environment that is visionary as well as mundane; Illuminati DIA
deals with concepts of utopia, survivalism, alienation and existentialism
mainly through a formal and minimal visual approach. Think of it as an esoteric
vivarium meets a dystopian man-cave meets a trendy bunker.

Moreover, in order to break the passivity of the
spectator; play and entertainment interactive components such as a video game,
a ping pong table and a tape deck as well as a library of cassettes and books
related to the installation concepts are included as part of the environment.
Through Illuminati DIA the fragility and inaccuracies of our present reality
are approached subtly and even in absurd ways.
