ISOLATION OF THE PROCESS

(21. – 28. April 2022.)

     IP is a performance of the experimental nature. It includes the isolation of the artist in a space with all the available materials for creating under the artists possession. The space is adjusted to provide the minimal comfort needed for an uninterrupted process of creation. The documentation of the experiment is done by the experimentee and the spectators. The isolation lasts 168 hours (7 days). After the designated time the place of experimentation becomes an exhibition space, and the contents of the experiment become a showpiece.

     The contents and the outcome of the experiment is defined only by the artists creative impulse.

The documentation process was done a few times a day during the seven day period and resulted in an hour long compilation of my video diaries. The full length video can be seen on the link below. 

The Traveling Wigwam

One of the things that sprouted within this experiment was a Wigwam (the white tent). This installation is an object of a child's game. The travelling wigwam provides a closed off and intimate space for drawing. By drawing the wigwam somewhere else, you travel with it.
