The impossibility of achieving the goal not because of one’s own inability, but because of the ambiguity of the desired. We wish to see before we look. The present is thus constantly postponed to the future, which thereby ceases to exist. For, as someone has said or written, the only real future is the one we do not expect, the one that surprises us. Vojtěch Rada’s current projects, culminating in a video installation in this case, reflect this very paradox through completely distinct stories and visual motifs – the desire to achieve the unattainable. This tension between now and the distant is a field of imagination. Through technology, we see what we would not otherwise see, but the question is where blind faith ends and begins. Is the existence of particles invisible to the eye more real than a Nigerian astronaut trapped in space? The “Exploring Nollywood” project, which was an online collaborative effort with the Nigerian film industry, ended in failure due to the differing perceptions of those involved.
Tvorba vystavujících autorů Aleksandriny Yordanové a Martina Kolarova je do velké míry odlišná a na velmi zjednodušené rovině užívaných médií lze pouze říci, že Alex Yordanová je kreslířkou a Martin Kolarov tvůrce objektů. To však v žádném případě nevystihuje důležitý moment, v němž se jejich tvorba potkává, kterým je viditelnost – možnost vidět jinak, než jak jsme jako lidé zvyklí. Potřeba nahlížet okolní svět jako pouze jednu z mnoha možností, je i jedním z motivů jejich společné výstavy v konTextu gelerie TIC.
