Morning topic: Deep Travellers
The speed of time and the length of the journey are only relative parameters of the expedition. On his journey, the pilgrim discovers other dimensions, experiences encounters with unpredictable phenomena, environments, natural elements that transcend him. The traveler consciously steps out of the comfort of his home ecosystem and sets up a traveler's ecosystem that has different rules. The artist explores the course of the journey, constructs scenarios of personal experiences, establishes imaginative spaces of fantastic dreamscapes, residues of our predecessors, centuries passed and great hopes. Civilizations have been shaped by journeys and social changes are happening continuously, it is not easy to notice because we are part of them. Whether it's a walking pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela or an ambitious flight to Mars, however significant the destination seems, the essentials are likely to happen along the way. That is why we set the journey as the motif of our artistic research and as its main goal.
