Carte de Tendre
paint and foil on walls and floor
site specific installation in Tranzit Workshop, Bratislava
2006

The exhibited scheme/net is a representation of intimate relations between people from the Slovak art scene with extensions to political, showbiz and other worlds. The project was based entirely on gossip as the oldest and the most common means of spreading and sharing. Gossip now plays a major role in returning social bonding to a world characterized by fragmentation and alienation. We aimed to explore the relationship of gossip to both overt and implicit structures of power, which, to us, is a political as well as aesthetic question, grounded in lived experience.
