The creative process conditioned by isolation during quarantine is used as a starting point for the concept of the gallery space as a place of personal research, confined to the landscape of Ralsko, a post-Soviet, post-military area.
Sulfur etched a hole, tanks ripped the ground, and human feet paved the way to a new universe. Where a shoe is an artifact of another civilization. The vision of scientific tentacles seems as feasible as a train trip. It is as if time wanted to return to the roots of old apple trees and at the same time shattered in a galaxy of virtuality. The dilapidated block of flats is a climbing frame and Ralsko is an architectural laboratory.
