Past, Present, Past

On timeline, the past is everything that precedes the present. Hence, the existence of the present is conditioned by the existence of the past as something given and immutable. That’s also the reason people tend to perceive it with certain nostalgia, sadness or joy. To fully enjoy the magic of the present, our minds naturally displace the less relevant or pleasant, making space for the most significant moments on the pedestal of eternity.

The exhibition is not only a departure from the established boundaries of the field, but also a demonstration of the possibilities that ceramics offer within contemporary art. The fact that it is ceramic clay, in various forms and shapes, that fills the gallery spaces is not a surprising result of a symposium focused on this material. However, ceramics is not the only means of expression that the exhibiting artists work with in their creations, which is also reflected in their latest works created during their four-week stay in Bechyně.
