Celebreting Ruins


2018
Exhibition Ruins of Future Utopia, Eugster || Belgrade, Serbia

Plaster, neon, steel frame, metal, monitors, dimensions variable

For the closing of Ruins of Future Utopia (Eugster || Belgrade, 2018) I have constructed an object made of disbanded parts of the two titular works from the show, Melancholy and Ruins of Future Utopia. By constructing an artificial ruin, the fragility of a message communicated by a work of art comes into question, while leaving some room for the possibility to speak through the ruins once again, and to try and find a new kind of value, the kind through which progress may come.
