With his installation Work, Bujňák employs moving images to artistically augment the SPEJS atrium, which is surrounded by numerous busy offices pulsating with work-related activities. The projection is divided into two parts. The first displays moving images of figures resembling the artist entering the building and walking up into the offices. The second is an almost pictographic depiction of work, specifically that of a person pushing a wheelbarrow. Together, these two moving image tapestries somewhat grotesquely complement the architectural space, accentuating it with additional layers of meaning.

Work
While profit rules and quick information flow is raping minds it’s difficult to define its role. Represented works show two different, parallel lines. One of them is a line of contemporary art which critically relates to a society, directly pointing to the problems and raising questions. And the other one is orientated to the internal logic of creative act, telling stories by means of formal features of used media.
