Art Between Implosion and Explosion
16/05/98 till 11/01/99
The Inner Passage
Travelling is connected with life. Every artwork is something like an odyssey. The state between departure and arrival is a possibility of finding new view-points through "seeing differently"; - in order to come to a place which is actually utopian and without geography. Everything is in flux: in this way the suppressed doesn't put up with us suppressing it and catches up with us again at night. Between "waking and dreaming" we can learn "seeing", and recognize "a tomorrow" in the future.
