By subjecting glass objects to thermal processes, I aim to visibly disintegrate them, constructing an artistic narrative that guides observers through reflective contemplation on human fragility, mortality, and the futility of warfare. The project's conceptual origins trace back to childhood games centered around toy soldiers. These innocent pastimes have dramatically transformed into an examination of the harsh realities inherent in armed conflict. <img width="1366" height="768" width_o="1366" height_o="768" src_o="https://cortex.persona.co/t/original/i/a13e6ce1628e31242e528f41c240897a1f98e112c3b66716853fe575043de24b/twinkle-little-star_youtube.jpg" data-mid="1383128" border="0" /> click image to play video&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;please ensure that the sound is enabled when viewing the video twinkle little star 2024 video, installationglass objects are about h6×1,5×0,5 cm, video duration is 15:16 minkiln-cast glass, temperature shock; video This project was realized with the support of Ambasada Kultury (Berlin), Municipal Gallery Arsenał GaMA (Poznań), The Eugeniusz Geppert Academy of Art and Design, and the Magdalena Abakanowicz University of Fine Arts.Featuring sound by Klankbeeld, with music by Laura Licata.   Twinkle Little Star ‘Twinkle Little Star’ reflects on the harsh reality of war through the deliberate destruction of glass toy-soldier figures, used... http://belaoki.com/crack Sat, 28 Jan 2023 11:30:57 +0000 belaoki - art & glass 437398  Crack <img width="1366" height="683" width_o="1366" height_o="683" src_o="https://cortex.persona.co/t/original/i/312c30bea49538cbe4ffd31ced93741a32bf1323854fae8b91ea39aaa22809b7/Crack_1_small.jpg" data-mid="1263043" border="0" />The project "Crack" is original view and reflection on the events of 2020-2021, that was the period before, during and after the presidential elections in Belarus.&nbsp; That was a period of increased civic awareness, social and political activity of Belarusians and the subsequent reaction of the pseudo-state, which resulted in unprecedented repressions, which continue until this day.
