Култсалон и Дом на киното имат удоволствието да представят "4x10 part one: unrooted", инсталация със сканография, текстилни и соларни принтове. Среща с автора: 19 юни, 18:30 ч.

„4 х 10“ е дългосрочен, мултимедиен проект на Оли Гоц, посветен на въпроси за идентичност, принадлежност и идеята за "родови корен", преплетени с изследване на „наследството“ от съветския съюз във т.нар., „източно-европейско пространство“ – конкретно, България и Украйна, като лични примери: какво оставя един режим насочен към тотално изтриване на всякакъв индивидуализъм и обособеност (културна, етническа, национална и пр.) и изграждане на изкуствена „еднаквост“. Паралелно се разглежда налагането на един език, като колониална практика.

Както личното преживяване е фрагментирано и обособено от миграция и адаптация, така и проектът се състои от няколко части, има няколко формата и места за представяне. Първата инсталация може да се разгледа в Дом на киното от 19 юни до 3 юли.

To mark our 10th anniversary, we've invited previous collaborators and friends to design one poster together. The final result will be revealed on 27 December: 10th Anniversary Co-created Poster Drop The third piece of our collaborative poster is from Andy Wooding:

Andy Wooding is a filmmaker, musician, comedian and artist from Liverpool, living in London and working worldwide.

"I entered this project knowing that Oli, Cooltsalon founder, creator and the first artist for this piece, is Ukrainian and I wanted to build on the existing blend of Bulgarian and Ukrainian patterns, so I added a hopeful sky blue background to reference the Ukrainian flag. The flag’s blue is actually deeper but I wanted to create lightness and a dreaminess that mixed well with the red that the second artist Roxane used for her text background. The vases are traditional Ukrainian and the idea was to invert them into what could be seen as bombs or pillars.

I also wanted to test-drive some generative AI so some small images were added that came from the commands “whatever,” “anything,” “generate,” and “feel.” I’m not sure what the images actually are or whether it even matters but AI is here and it’s impacting all businesses and artistic mediums on and off-line so it felt interesting for it to have a small, if insignificant and meaningless, part in the project."

The second piece of our co-created poster is from our long-term collaborator and on/off core team member, Roksana Gotz:

"My voice into pieces” is a deconstruction of my poems. Randomly placed words and sentences from my existing poems that create a puzzle for people to play with. Inviting them to read me, to hear me in a way they choose. My words become theirs, each time creating a new poem, for infinite number of times. My art no longer exists, only new versions of it, that will have my name but the soul of someone else.
I never had an interest in the final form, art is a process and this is my attempt to burn my texts in hope that someone will feel while playing with their ashes."

Roxana Gotz is a conceptual/performance artist and writer. Her work delves into the raw complexities of human connection and identity, exploring themes of trauma, transformation, the tension between hope and despair, brokenness, and the journey toward embracing both light and darkness within.
