For over three decades, Daniel Rozin has created interactive artworks that place the viewer at the center of image-making. Working with technology, custom software, physical materials, and kinetic motion, Rozin uses his practice to investigate how images are formed, perceived, and transformed through participation.

In Interference, Rozin turns his focus explicitly to interference patterns—moiré effects—the shimmering, unstable visual phenomena that emerge when two patterned systems are overlaid and set into motion. These effects were extensively explored by Op Art artists in the 1960s, and most notably by Jesús Rafael Soto, who over several decades created hundreds of works investigating visual interference, vibration, and optical instability. 

This exhibition is conceived as a homage to Soto, whose pioneering explorations of moiré and perceptual motion have been a lasting source of inspiration for Rozin’s own investigations into vision, movement, and the active role of the observer.
