Looking for the irrationality, inexplicability and mysteries in in my work. Thoughts,
formulations that emerge, evoke comments, contradictions, opposites.
The subatomic and the cosmic in reality, keeps everything tied together.
The human existence becomes in the next breath a new unknown reality.
A work that also wants to show, be tools for nature's right to exist and look for their non-
controllable paths. Nature does not want to please, but we will always be a part of nature.
Open a portal to another dimension to master the growing environmental threat,
militarization, political inhumanity as rising dark clouds and shadows.
Choosing new alternative ways of working, methods by cooperating with local,
international artists, artists groups and curators. I want to create platforms, networks
where thoughts, ideas can move freely as a counterweight to established institutions and
commercial galleries.

The exhibition features Marko Cesarec, Lars Embäck and Anne Marte Overaa.
A feeling that we are losing time arises because we are constantly
using the limited days of our lives. At the same time, our planet is
threatened from a global perspective through current and upcoming
crises. Man's biological presence on earth may become just a
parenthesis. But today there are still opportunities for change. The
future, which is Gibca's theme for the Biennale 2023, is dependent on
events that have already taken place and of the current time which is
unfolding right now.

Marko Cesarec shows an installation, titled The Plant at the library. The
name of the artwork has in the English language a double meaning,
Plant or Factory. It has previously been shown at the Tifa Working
Studios in Pune, India as a comment to the climate change and
environmental destruction. The Plant is a site-specific visual work, that
with it’s many different parts, explores the metamorphosis of nature. In a
hidden interconnecting monumental spatiality you can if you want to,
see the remains of a starsky. Nothing is fixed. All values can change
places. The composition's open irregular and uncontrollable forms, with
constantly change shape, is a protest against the ruthless exploitation of
nature. Cesarec's artwork is also in a way contrary to the idea about the
welfare state, as architects Sven Brolin and Jan Wallinder presented in
their statement in the magazine Ny Tid in 1957:
You should try to get away from the haphazard variation, the whimsical embroideries.
The entire new production technology points in the same direction.
Pure cultivation, the clarity, characterizes the architecture of our time”

Last plant
Greenhouse effect, climate change, pollution and other environmental threats
become a part in everyone's life. This “last plant” in metamorphosis tries to start
the forces that is needed to make a change.
All the pieces of the artwork kept together with an hidden interconnecting,
monumental spatiality as repeats in the artwork, seal remains of a starsky.
Open irregular random shapes with macro and micro worlds interweave each
other. Wants too transform, in a voyage in time and space.
