DESCRIPTION
The work marks a new stage not only for the creator but also for people living in this era. It imagines a scenario of the future—a journey filled with questions that resist immediate answers. Rather than telling a specific story, the piece seeks to raise questions about private space, sensitivity, the limits of personal freedom, and the perception of reality.
Fifteen glass cylinders placed throughout the space create function as an artistic device that provokes existential questions, each resonating differently with every individual. Standing inside a cylinder, the viewer becomes part of the active scenography and a shared collective experience. From this position they witness a dystopian landscape in which human existence is disassembled and reassembled like shards of shattering glass. The result is a nonconformist and unfamiliar experience of everyday reality.
Hunger is a collective fantasy—or perhaps a vision of a collective life that will need to be created one way or another. Whether by breaking the glass, transforming the environment through the body, or simply existing on either side of the transparent boundary, the question of participation remains inevitable.
Human existence reveals a paradoxical desire: to represent life and to live it simultaneously, to understand and at the same time simply to be. The urge to become perfect, singular specimens can also transform into a form of confinement. It resembles existence behind glass—like that of a preserved creature or a butterfly that has lost its life but not the fragile beauty of its wings. Yet alongside this stillness persists a persistent desire to shatter the glass in pursuit of a deeper truth—a kind of Holy Grail of meaning.
In this sense, the project activates the “machinery of desire” described by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari. Participants are drawn into a continuous flow of fragmentation and becoming, where identity dissolves and reforms. Humanity is deconstructed—not to destroy it, but to awaken it from its slumber.
Hunger is not a work confined to a single moment in time; it is a journey—laden with questions that resist immediate answers yet filled with meaning, transformation, beauty, and search. It is a nonconformist encounter with everyday reality and a collective imagination of a life that still has to be created.
The action takes place in a 360-degree space, which means they can choose their viewing angle — in a sense, they become part of the choreography rather than just passive observers.”
