As we find ourselves in times that have extensive socio-political implications, the exhibition thematizes the insecurity, the suspicion and post-factuality gradually digging into our lives more and more. The many ambivalent mechanisms trough which we cope with this uncertainty and multiplicity of artistic processes (either politically-critical, or completely non-factual and sensual, scientific or even speculative) of the abandonment of what is considered “real” or “rational” take their forms in the interconnected realms of the technological, the natural, the mystical, the symbolical.

Andersson plays with the rigidity of academic language, which she uses with a degree of hyperbole and projects with a jovial delivery, full of sexual harassment and misogynistic remarks. The author breaks down our boundaries – just as she breaks down the barriers of the sexual undertones and hidden manifestations in the manner of communication of the masculine pop world.

Brood – Stranger’s Vial – Womb is a “game that has forgotten its own rules” and “a story without an ending.” Instead of a clear, linear fantasy, it offers a fantasy space that we view through several layers of material and media abstraction. It makes everyday objects and (in)human identities special. It invites us to notice the affects of humanity in the midst of the climate crisis, which can only be glimpsed through peripheral vision, somewhere at the edge of gilded metal. Just beware: The sides will be reversed.

It's obvious that the issue of the environment and ecology in art is increasingly becoming a consciously political decision that affects what art we create, how we teach it, how we talk about it, or how we present it. Artwork is intertwined with cultural activity, which is linked to activism and vice versa. The context, material used and financial resources are increasingly accentuated.

Currently, we encounter these changes and catastrophes being discussed in regional public debates by people from the scientific community, government agencies, and politics, who use the authority of expert images to describe the ongoing changes and impending catastrophes. We do not see images that deviate from the established norms of scientific representation in the public sphere, and the voices of those directly affected by these changes are heard little or not at all in public debate. However, the presence of the planet as an active force producing its own images and ways of sharing them gives power to these alternative voices, languages, and images.

The exhibition focuses on the theme of the passage of time during crises such as war or climate change. The sharp time of political and economic development runs concurrently with the seasonal time of human waiting for the (un)imaginable end of conflicts.
