”Vague Astronaut, or How to Get Lost In Outer Space”
part of ”Engram” project / exhibited in the Patio Art Centre, Łódź, Poland 2009,
the Broadcast Gallery in Dublin Institute of Technology, Department of Fine Art, St. Josephs Convent, Ireland, 2009 during the one man show titled “In Limbo”
”Vague Astronaut, or How to Get Lost In Outer Space” – the installation work – is a tragic figure, alone and looking into the sky, anxiously talking of his sense of being lost. The work makes reference to the state of affairs in our civilisation. It does not only pertain to the period of global crisis, or the crisis in some spheres of faith and science, but it concerns the general. Similar to the contemporary man, the figure is semitransparent, indistinct, vague…
In this work, I focus also on time. Broken-up pictures in slow motion suggest the direction of time, that we basically do not know. Time is highlighted as an element we can only virtually control.
”Vague Astronaut, or How to Get Lost In Outer Space” i exposed also in the Broadcast Gallery in Dublin Institute of Technology, Department of Fine Art, St. Josephs Convent, Ireland, 2009 in the one man show titled “In Limbo”. This installation was composed of three elements: drawings, sculpture, and video. Apparently, each of these elements was different, from a different medium, nevertheless they combined into a thematic unity (according to transmedia concept).
