Composition # 2
“Ad futurun memoriam”
Composition # 2 ”Ad futurun memoriam” is a video installation that represents a full-size model of a room. The story starts with video image and continues into the expositional space.
The main theme of the installation is a problem of personal space. A room as a micro cosmos gather memories and feelings that presented in different symbols and special ritual. It is personal archive that shows artist reflection on today reality. An interior of the room perform melancholic and thoughtful mood.
Elements of surrealism in the story per- formed on screen, linear perspective and visual dynamics tend to change architecture of expositional space to open possibilities for visitors's personal reflection.
