"Mission statement"
Instaed of a standard artistic CV, I would like to quote a text here which my dear friend Lucille Nolan has written in Spring 2005. Lucille is an artist, architect, engineer and vision science researcher.

"The recent proliferation of art and science initiatives is indicative of a more general and collective acknowledgment of the merits of an interdisciplinary practice that is now recognised in most fields of study. Artists are particularly privileged in that they can freely explore and borrow from the methods, materials, concepts and innovations of other disciplines. To this end much contemporary media, installation and performance arts practices are inherently multi-disciplinary, however, this characteristic is often misinterpreted as inherent interdisciplinarity. Roland Barthes stated in 1972, that in order to do interdisciplinary work one must create new objects that ‘belong to no one’. This suggests that the interdisciplinary art object must be void of the art-typical, such as the use of traditional materials in its making, or its exhibition in traditional art contexts. If not presented as art (or as science, or as technology) an interdisciplinary art object can circumvent any conditioned expectations or modes of reception such as an aesthetic premise or a pre-supposed ‘message‘ encoded by the artist. This concept has its roots in the manifestos of the 1960’s situationists and later interventionist art practices, and it is continued today in the work of some contemporaries such as the current wave of Flashmob communities.
Joerg Jozwiak proposes that an interdisciplinary art practice will combine the essence of interdisciplinarity with the objectives/agendas of interventionist art, and that the products of such a practice would be a truly interdisciplinary ‘object’. He asks what such an object could be, where it could be situated, how it would be received. I is defining ‘invisible art’ as an art that ‘does not belong’. It will reach new, un-biased audiences in the form of serendipitous ‘strange encounters’ subtlely sited in the otherwise ordinary, everyday environment. The aim of invisible art is to raise the perceptual awareness of the viewer, indeed to emphasize perception itself by having the viewer re-perceive their ‘no-longer-everyday’ environment.
He builds upon his background in philosophy and geography and philosophical and art-sociological investigations in this area. Using the concept of Invisible Art as a vehicle, he intends to formulate, define and theoretically analyse the notion of interdisciplinarity as an art genre in itself. [...] The ultimate aim of this project is to [...] explore [an] area of art practice that can only exist in-between disciplinary boundaries, and that cannot be placed within the accepted sub-disciplines of art."
