Cirkulace Prototyp 2018
Festival Prototyp, Circulation, instalation at exterior, BVV Trade Fairs, Brno, 2018
Interactive installation in the Prototype Brno festival.
The light stream responds to the noise that surrounds the installation. The more noise, the faster the light stream circulates and changes color. The colors are inspired by the tricolor, depending on the recent 100 anniversary of the origing of Czechoslovakia.
Circulation tries to solve the problem of constantly recurring cycles. An organic-shaped light object from a tube copies the light that circulates around it. This object is based on the consideration of human ever-recurring events and processes, whether they concern the human body and mind, nature or society. The object rests on the given space and tries to contain it in its entirety. The line passing through the gallery space can be perceived as a marked route or path, but it can also resemble movement without a clear goal, “tangling” in a circle. The cycle, which is ubiquitous, is then an individual contribution to the whole and can be presented as the course of an irregular curve full of dramatic twists, ups and downs. The stream of light, which constantly replicates the organic shape of the tube, represents an endless flow of information. Circulation seeks to point out the hopelessness of repetition in our lives; it does not solve the problem, it is rather a statement.
