DESCRIPTION OF THE EXHIBITION: 

Before I met the owner of the photographs from a big cardboard box, I took photoactive matter on which he was writing down the world. With each photograph I learnt new facts, deciphered a record of a snapshot. From pieces I put a story that could be. Before I met the owner of the photographs, I found out how he sees the world. For decades he was putting his everyday life into details and portrait shots. All narrations are possible. Curiosity, snippets of one's story, meeting a person of that story – all of it brought us here to ask a question: "how much what was once >>thrown away<< can be >>found<<?" Our action is an attempt to account for having a story which is not our own. It is a polyphonic story about remembering and forgetting, about throwing away and intercepting, about finding something anew and looking for traces of presence in matter not visible with a naked eye. 


INFORMATION ABOUT THE ARTISTS: 

Weronika Fibich - Her work borders on performative arts, reportage and documentary. Director of theatrical/performative undertakings, interdisciplinary artist, creator of documentaries and a number of artistic projects. Since 1998 affiliated with Kana Theatrical Centre. Apart from artistic, cultural, and educational activities undertook by the Centre, for years she has been following her own artistic path. Her interests involve activities which go outside theatrical space and border on private and public spheres. Very often she raises subjects of borderline, exclusion, memory and identity. Her method of working is "drawing from memory". A value of such a drawing comes from linking private and public, rational and intuitive, recalled and felt.
