Works
Jaś Domicz, / Mummy, Daddy and Me / 2010 / PL / 01’43”
From the program of Biennale WRO Alternative Now 2011. Recording of an artistic action. Family relations and the joy of being together represented by a revolving door.
Agata Kus / Mother / 2012 / PL / 9’14”
Documentation of an installation exhibited at the WRO Biennale Pioneering Values 2013 at the Rings of Saturn exhibition in the Ballestrem’s Palace in Wrocław. On difficult relationship between the child and his or her mother, interdependence, and extreme emotions that this relationship raises. Hatred mixed with love and rebellion against the duplication of stereotypes and parental behaviour are just some of the associations that this work calls. “Classic” arrangement of mother and “child” — here shown in form of a wild cat — refers to religious iconography. To hurt each other (painful scratching and moaning opposed to oppression) represents difficult love (conscious or not) that most of us have with mothers.
Adrian Kolarczyk / Trace / 2014 / PL / 02’16”
The artist scatters flour in his apartment. His every move leaves traces of his presence.
Justyna Misiuk / RGB LOOKBOOK / 2013 / PL / 4’33”
A documentation of an installation exhibited at the WRO Pioneering Values 2013 in the Renoma Department Store. Five—channel video installation. RGB is one of the colour models, and the popular lookbooks are used to endorse lifestyles and fashionable looks. Virtual carnivality is their way to accumulate everyday life stripped of its ordinary nature. The girls dressed in red, green, and blue are presenting an image of the contemporary carnivalism, turning it into a peculiar diary written in a language of concrete-sensual symbols characteristic to video blogs and youtube channels and found in everyday life.
Katarzyna Postaremczak + Tomasz Koszewnik / I stabbed her but I didn’t mean to kill her, I loved her but she treated me like shit / 2012 / PL / 5’53”
Sound performance recorded during the WRO Biennale Pioneering Values 2013 in the Ballestrem Pallace in Wroclaw. Katarzyna Postaremczak, plays simultaneously with her partner, Tomasz Koszewnik, a guitar built out of two integrated electric instruments on a mirror basis. Blurring of the boundaries between the two parties, thwarts at the same time their freedom of movement end expression.
Maria Stożek / Territories / 2013 / PL / 6′
From the program of Biennale WRO Test Exposure 2015. The artist struggles with the elements. Surreal implementation of dangerous territory where treading on thin ice is a literal metaphor for taking a risk and embarking on uncertain ground.
Maria Toboła / White Army / 2010 / PL / 02’49”
From the program of Biennale WRO Alternative Now 2011. Golden oldie from the repertoire of Bajm is singed by the artist in front of a platoon. Soldiers are interested rather in the singer than a song.
