Ricardo Peredo Wende erzeugt Lichtobjekte in Bewegung als Kunstwerke,
die in Interaktion mit seiner Performance und Malerei Arbeit sind.
Seine Kunstwerke sind Movinghologramme.​
Diese Arbeit mit Licht im Raum ist pluridisziplinär und multimedial.
Sie basiert auf Lichtmalerei und dem Umgang mit Raum und Zeit.
Es finden Performances in Movinghologramme statt.
​
Ricardo Peredo Wende is multi-media artist whose work utilizes painting,
video, holography, music, and performances.
​
He has built installations, created moving- holograms,
displayed electronic images, painted murals for and with kids, made cartoons,
and filmed documentaries.
His artwork is based on drawing and painting is multimedia and interdisciplinary.
Ricardo creates light objects in motion.
His last works of art are moving holograms.
This work with light in space is pluridisciplinary and multimedia,
it is based on light painting and the handling of
space and time.
Light, time and waves play a major role in everything he does.

He was born in La Paz, Bolivia in 11482,94 ft. high, but has spent most of his adult life traveling
abroad exploring how perception changes depending the geographical location of view.
In his early twenties, Wende went to Germany to meet Joseph Beuys and study his work. However, Beuys had already lost his professorhsip at the Art Academy in Düsseldorf. Instead, he introduced Ricardo, Nam June Paik, who was still teaching at the school. Since Wende had been very interested in video, he became one of Paik‘s most dedicated students.
Peredo Wende made a discovery while studying at the Academy of Media Art in Cologne that became integral to his work. While working on a video installation, he found that a shadow hologram could be used in a video feedback to form a new rainbow color loop of sampled laser light. From this, Wende invented a process he calls “holofeedback”, a combination of holography and electronic, analog and digital feedback. The holofeedback describes a combination of holography and feedback; a physical light phenomenon that occurs through the use of shadow holograms in video feedback, resulting in a feedback light of rainbow colours. By looping virtual laser light into a circle through video feedback he creates different forms of holofeedback. These loops became an integral part of his work, informing the tools he uses to create his artwork. The laser light of a hologram can be converted into LED light. Over the course of many years, Wende has created a unique set of tools for this purpose.
His work is in a state of permanent evolution. It draws from aspects and techniques of other practices, such as; painting, sculpture, science, music, theatre, film and dance, alongside side the influence of technological advances. Moving image is not bound by time and introduces the fourth dimension into artwork.
His holography and video artwork influenced his painting and drawing and viceversa. Since the holofeedback discovery his perception regarding the meaning of time opened a perspective to immateriality. To understand this concept he landed in the field of conventional physics to work with this concept. Time.
In his moving-holograms he uses the immaterial concept of time to compose music made of light and sound waves, considering the aspect that light can travel in vacum and sound needs air or water to be transported. Here is important to mention one thought he learned, that everything in art is a matter of transportation. It starts for example, when you transport the color of a tube to the canvas, etc. Using simple parameters of physics one can better understand the aspects related to light to time and space explores his art Works.
Peredo Wende has been working as an artist in many countries, doing projects and exhibitions. He showed his work in August of 2019 in a retrospective solo exhibition in the National Museum of Art in La Paz Bolivia. He continued to work closely with Nam June Paik for many years after finishing his studies.
To acknowledge the impact his mentor had on his own work, Wende exhibited the video installation “Paik is Video Buddha”. Through the simile of the Buddha, Wende conveys how Paik is the father and pioneer of video art.
​
The pieces shown in Peredo Wende’s last exhibitions are the results of his research and experiments with light. He intends to transcend time and space through the immaterial aspect of art and strives to achieve this through repurposing material icons such as diamonds and by harnessing light to form jewel-like structures.
In his work Shiny Stone and Wasser Skizze he uses a combination of holography, electronic and digital light. In one he has created a transparent, multicolour, holographic diamond. In the other, he alludes to the form of a diamond through moving water.
Using LED light projections and manipulating the angle in which they are shown, he creates a new perspective of form and colour, questioning how it travels through time and space.
Developing an understanding of time opens up the doors to physics and it’s interaction with art. Because moving image in video art has the privilege to play with time, we find this new element as the fourth dimension of a video art piece. To expand his practice beyond a visual médium, Peredo Wende composes music that is played back or performed at his exhibitions.
