Biography

Nonotak is a collaborative installation project founded in 2011 by French visual artist Noemi Schipfer and Japanese architect and musician Takami Nakamoto. The duo is renowned for their immersive audiovisual installations and performances that blend light, sound, and space to create dreamlike, hypnotic environments. Combining Schipfer’s expertise in abstract visual art with Nakamoto’s background in architecture and music, Nonotak produces works that explore the dynamic interplay between technology, perception, and human experience.Nonotak's work is known for its striking use of light and geometry, creating environments that envelop the audience in shifting, pulsating patterns synchronized with ambient soundscapes. Their installations often feature large-scale, kinetic light structures and precise sound design, transforming spaces into sensory experiences that blur the boundaries between physical and digital realms. Each piece invites viewers to immerse themselves in a surreal world where light and sound constantly evolve, producing a captivating interplay of movement, rhythm, and atmosphere.One of their most notable works, Daydream V.2, exemplifies their approach to creating audiovisual installations. Using a grid of light and carefully composed music, Nonotak manipulates both visual and auditory perception, crafting a meditative space that shifts between tranquility and intensity. Their performances are similarly renowned for their live manipulation of sound and visuals, allowing the duo to create fluid, real-time interactions between light and music that immerse audiences in multi-sensory experiences.Exhibiting their work internationally, Nonotak has appeared at prestigious venues and festivals such as Tate Modern, Sónar Festival, and the Tokyo National Museum of Emerging Science and Innovation. Their innovative fusion of art and technology has made them leaders in the world of immersive installations, continuously pushing the boundaries of how light, sound, and space can engage and transform audience perception.
