my reality is not your reality

After significant projects, moments of indulgence, or clubbing all night long, devastation often comes – not only physical, but also emotional (burnout,hangover, etc) and we are being forced to face back the everyday reality that spreads out in front of young artists. It is overlapped with various psychological traumas, and the art market’s constant pressure on the ongoing production of art. This is the time when reality is often questioned because the perception of one's own reality can function independently of the concept of the real. Here the desire to be in another world, in another reality, manifests itself the most strongly.

The participating artists employ various strategies, both subtle and overt. They might engage in obsessive work or purposefully step back to reflect. Some choose solitude, while others seek inspiration in endless parties. They might establish a nurturing environment or push their limits to explore their position in the world. In employing these coping methods, artists confront the complexities of reality, striving to carve out their place within it.
