This exhibition provides an
insight into the psychodynamics of a fictional person who reacts to
conflicts with defence mechanisms. The images are intended to visually
collect some of the self-protective behavioural motifs that share the negative
capacity of distorting our perception of reality, acting as shadows,
from the background.
The works not only provide
analogies between these mechanisms and classic hunting scenes, thus creating a
set of motives, but they also revive different historic periods and
characters. In this way the viewer can look at these phenomena from
different timelines.
All this is realised in a
relatively symmetrical format, the pictures are juxtaposed in pairs.
Their duplicity and uncertainty are resolved in a search for balance. In the
inner space, charcoal drawings represent shadows while the serpentines represent
the outside world, leading the visitor from the outside into an inner space.
