Silent Hour. Experience art in the silence.
Beschreibung
During the silent hour, the exhibition "Dreaming about You and Mountains" is open in complete silence for 30–45 minutes. It is experienced without words, creating space for attention in a world of constant noise and overstimulation. The silence is followed by a short talk on listening to nature and environmental fragility. Followed by a 10–15 min talk on listening to nature, slowness, and attention.
The exhibition explores the connection between people and nature. You can see photographs, textiles and ceramic objects. A key source of inspiration is the fragility of the environment and human relationships, the beauty of mountain landscapes and sculptural approach to the human body. The artistic works are presented alongside the art–science collaboration Blue-Green Biodiversity, developed with the Swiss Federal Institutes Eawag and WSL.
«I use bright acrylic paints on my digital and analogue photographs to convey emotions and symbols. The amorphic and abstract painted forms I use in images depict the coexistence of different processes and parts of the world together in one. It's natural for our world to change and glaciers to become water again, but we are responsible now for this rapid change. And would there be a place for us in this newly melted and evaporated world?».
Anna Korbut is a visual artist from Ukraine based in Switzerland, working with photography and mixed media. The artist will be present during the exhibition and available for discussions in English, German, Polish, and Ukrainian. Artworks will be available for purchase.
