This exhibition was my first big solo exhibition. I presented videos together with paintings created in years 2005–2007. I devoted the large hall of the exhibition to the model of a cinema in Doksy, which interests me because of its untold history reflected in its final form. Although the paintings and videos were intentionally spatially separated, their kinship is nevertheless determined by my personal experiences, transformed into symbols and symbolic actions with wider connotations. The individual motives of the paintings are presented in a fairly comprehensible order; the videos capture short stagings of events. All of them originate in personal experiences that mostly remain hidden. My intention is to work with the tension created by my “intimate design” of the exhibited works and the connotations and contents familiar to the public.
