The exhibition project by Petra Lelláková and Vladimíra Večeřová presents a collection of works created during a foreign study stay in South Korean Seoul between 2010 and 2013. Each artist stayed in Seoul in different time and worked independently. Therefore, we can see two different approaches to the same foreign environment. On one hand, the artists try to enter it unnoticed and merge with it, on the other hand they point out some differences that the two cultures they work with represent. Petra and Vladimíra express themselves differently, the first works mostly with video and video performance, the other uses more varied media forms (video, painting, photography, object).

For over a century, the factory in Střekov has influenced the structure of the city and the quality of life of its inhabitants. During the period of industrial development, Johann Schicht and his descendants built civic amenities in the city – a health center, spas, nurseries, a library, and residential buildings for their workers. After the company was nationalized, production continued and continued to employ a large number of newly settled residents. The national company Setuza also brought its employees together and enabled them to participate in "extracurricular activities," primarily in events organized by the Revolutionary Trade Union Movement, which included the organization of International Women's Day celebrations, St. Nicholas Day gifts, and children's camps.
