Weight Shift

A Solo Show by Aleksndra Laskova

22 October – 6 November 2022

The bruise is an interconnection of the soul and the body in a joint crash. It is a memory, a sign that reminds of a shape once enlivened, a mark that was allowed to last, the prostheses that we ourselves added to our self-perception. Heavy, sticky, chronic. Until seen from another perspective.

This exhibition is about achieving the shift. A shared intimacy of childhood memories embraced by a grown-up woman on the edge of entering her own maturity.

Relocating the objects associated with the active idea of the past to an almost deserted place, leaving them to the will of the natural environment, is to be distinguished as an artistic and ritualistic gesture. Taken out, taken down, exposed – burning the thread.
