A. Bikse’s Fight With The Void

Comprised of works representing different time periods and themes, this exhibition communicates the author’s reflections on various personal and sociopolitical processes, The compilation illuminates an individual’s inner world and its boundaries while simultaneously attempting to solve personal issues and questioning their relevance.

The exhibition draws attention to the importance of human activity as context-specific – it is determined by situation and perspective. At a given moment a person may be very proud of himself/herself while the following moment he/she might understand it is worth nothing. The human is then overwhelmed with sadness brought by a realisation that the path to fulfilment is more complex than initially intended or quite different in its essence.

Overestimating oneself may eventually lead to a realisation of one’s insignificance in a broader context. These fluctuations, the sum of which is likely to be zero – emptiness. The void that frees from assumptions and imagination.

We build assumptions and concepts only to take them apart and build new ones in order to create our model of the world as harmonious as possible.
