The gallery spaces are filled with anxious echoes of today’s events. Brutal and confusing historical circumstances – so far known to the younger generation only in the form of myths, films, textbooks or some stories – draw us into a new whirlpool of reflection. They accumulate like sediments, like the fear of a never-ending storm, prompting to rethink the social structures that bind us together and the dominant models of the world. It is a collage of reverberations and echoes, reflecting on the inner turmoil of the artists and their environment.

This exhibition presents reflections on the environment and society – analysing urban change, niche communities and the specificity of their interactions, anticipated changes in the world and the expectations of creators, transformed into forecasts of our micro-climate. Are these just one-day weather fluctuations, or some climate anomalies becoming the new standard?
The exhibition will be followed by a programme of public events: guided tours with the artists will take place on Saturdays in February (4, 11, 18 February from 4 pm), and on 12 February at 6:30 pm an open poetry reading event will take place in the Events Hall at cultural centre SODAS 2123 (Vitebsko 23, Vilnius).
