This \u201coutside\u201d, this external content, is separated from the interior by a barrier creating two echo chambers - one facing inwards and the other facing outwards. The echo chamber imposes itself as a model for it is an overwhelming impression of our existences. We float in a river of repeated and absurd slogans and news, but on the other hand, it seems that even the simplest of desires become uncommunicative or poisoned by marketing and advertising specialists.\nThis project involves three international artists, Maja Kitajewska, Jim Ricks and Alexander Skorobogatov, whose works explore the experience of contemporary life in its diversity. The aim is to form a narrative structure about desire and communication, which is subjected, on one hand, to the flood of artificial products trying to manipulate desires, and, on the other, by ubiquitous, highly confusing, information.\nPresented as a three-skins creature, the show is a small model of the contemporary experience of an accelerated, terrified, fragile world, in which hopes and desires are not extinguished, although hard to see. The exhibition-box could be completed by the presence, elsewhere in the area of the Biennal, of a giant inflatable speech bubble \u2013 video recording booth: an ongoing, collaborative and participatory work about truth(s) and storytelling.","space":"The exhibition is built in a box-like manner, with the possibility to use its outside for performance and participatory happenings. It can be rectangular, or round shaped. The whole structure needs an area of minimum 120 m2, and need to be more than 5m high in order to welcome Skorobogatov's metal structure (5mx5mx3m). The external walls will be used for Ricks' works, while the interior resemble to a typical white cube space. Outside lightning is sharp and strong, inside is dim and theatrical.","artists_proposal":"Maja Kitajewska, PL, http:\/\/majakitajewska.blogspot.com\/\nJim Ricks, IRL, http:\/\/www.jimricks.info\/ ; http:\/\/insearchofthetruth.net\nAlexander Skorobogatov, DE, http:\/\/www.alexanderskorobogatov.de\/","members":[],"lang":"en","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":"http:\/\/insearchofthetruth.net\/#!\/portrait\/jVgUIc5qDOU","audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"fileCount":9,"names":"Elisa","surname":"Rusca","email":"elisa.rusca@gmail.com","dni_type":"PASAPORTE","dni":"X2563289","address":"Arndtstrasse 37, 10965","city":"Berlin","nacionality":"Swiss","country_id":"61","birthdate":"1986-07-08T03:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1986-07-08T03:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+41795116586","web":"elisarusca.com"}
