The exhibition presents works by artists and collectives who share an interest in mythologies, spirituality, imagination or a form of poetic ecological and social activism, while acknowledging the complex scale of their starting points. In doing so, they acknowledge their sincere uncertainty and contradictions through the anthropomorphism of characters of imagined or spoken stories. Like Nikolay Zabolotsky writing about a wolf whose foot in the soil has not taken root after two weeks, the authors of the exhibition melancholically and sometimes self-ironically yearn for a transformation that cannot be achieved.
The opening will include a musical performance by the collective Mocný puch lesa. (Mighty Smell of the Forest).
