Nu Parcati

Solo exhibition in OS17 Gallery, Szczecin

2019

Hand-built urban constructions have a specific function - to convey the message „nu-parcati” (Romanian do not park). They guarantee ephemeral possession of a piece of street. Heavy enough for someone not to move them, but light enough to maneuver them. They manifest the desperate appropriation of public space.

Reconstructed in the gallery space the urban objects reveal their aesthetics, enabling contemplation of the abstract „makeshiftness” of different materials.
