Jaroslav Kyša

In his works (antiobjects) Jaroslav Kyša is trying to reflect contemporary society and confront a viewer with constantly changing presence and our insecure future. Through use of laws of physics and nature in his multimedia works, he contemplates upon humanity and its geopolitical issues. Thanks to magnetism, electrical mechanisms and software, Jaroslav Kyša disrupts functioning of gravity and perception of time. He brings attention to “short circuits” of reality and its understanding. By corruption of basic human beliefs and knowledges about physical principles, Kyša encourages questioning of general certitudes. He investigates into both conceptual and material essence of works created, which results in interaction of a viewer with the work. A viewer thus becomes a part of “short circuit” of reality.

Jaroslav Kyša
The departure point for “Prompted” is a shared fascination by the three invited artists and the curator for spaces of ambiguity opened up by aural works. The works selected for each of the artists configure the contrast that exist between an authorial voice framing an artistic experience and images recorded simply with live recording and surround sound.
What kind of contemporary artists come from Bosnia and Herzegovina? What kind of cultural figures did the generation of the upcoming artists in Bosnia have at their disposal, at the time of their “spontaneous cultural formation”, until they have (in)formally decided to become a part of the discourse of “the contemporary visual art”?
