The invisible has the same importance as the visible, because the meaning is not in the material, it is in the change. The artwork dissolves its matter and its concept; when revealed it gradually diminishes over a limited time period; leaving behind only artifacts as witnesses.
But we are there, incapable of affirmation, but conscious of the total openness of life.
Installation Guardian Givers researches the in-between space, the undefined territory between genders. It explores connections between body, language and knowledge. By using various artistic tactics it aims at creating an intermedial relational art piece that is breaking of the clichés of the traditional understanding of the art and the artist. Artwork is inserted in the very centre of the problem, concurrently opening a series of questions that arouse our considerations on the altered role of the artist in the creation of the artwork, on the openness of the artist towards the outer subjects, as well as the awareness of the artist of his altered role, not only as an artist but as a subject of the community whose part he acknowledges and agrees to be. Using variety of artistic media: paintings, object installation, sound installation and literature it creates a temporal time-space continuum, an interactivity platform. The spectator, that is, her/his decision, her/his way, her/his experience shaped in the long process of making a proper spiritual space as a result of the self-cognizance, becomes part of the artistic act. The tendency of the artist is to defocus the attention from the art object in its classical sense towards the spectator who becomes an active subject in the creative process.
Object installation consists of figurative paintings of indefinable gender that are immersed in degradation-causing medium. Another layer of experience is created by sound installation: literature text based on the story-telling principles of cyclical oral memory invokes archetypal imagery of androgyny via different speaking/chanting techniques, creating an in-between ritual space, where borders are melted down and transgression is offered as a way of being.
