NO PERFORMANCE TODAY
3D model, 2020
The work was made in 2020, during the pandemic, when I was trying to understand and portray a new state for me - boredom.
While reading L. Svendsen's book "A Philosophy of Boredom," the figure from Toyen's painting "Relache" (1943) flashed from my subconscious. In its new interpretation, it was tied for me to the then situation of isolation during the peak of COVID and my way of experiencing it.
Boredom itself is often surreal, like a dream from which one must awaken. Thus, my sculptural composition is the result of an attempt to convey this state. I tried to reconstruct the story from the painting by scanning myself into a 3D version of Toyen‘s upside down figure.
