THE NIGHT OF TIME

2019 / video installation, sound

 

The Night Of Time is a large - format animation – a collage. All its components make up the unity. Individual forms are not separate, alienated beings, but they rather seem to be made of the same substance. The Night of Time is a gap, a crevice leading to a world covered under the surface of matter, a place existing in accordance with the invariable rules, manifesting on the border of phantasy and materialism, of fable and science. This is a vision of existence outside time. A dimension with no dichotomies: past/future, good/evil, truth/ lie, culture/nature, and everything happens here and now, with “here” being everywhere and “now” being always. This is a declaration of total apolitically, a withdrawal into a world of a utopian notion of a neutral nature immersed in its existence, in which no spells and prophecies can appear because they have no reference point, are inapt, inaccurate. The painting symbolically puts in brackets and cancels what is related to history, exposing the viewer to a cold view from outside time.
