In my works I often reflect upon children's education and problems of youth and women, which I believe are especially important in the process of building a “civil society”. I am especially interested in cooperation with girls of my age. In 2001 with Tzomak, Nara, and Nata we created the “Incest” rock band. The term “insect” was very symbolic for us, because it expressed our opposition to the culture. By means of musical performances and TV programs we exposed fairytale and “child-poem” roles and scenarios imposed and “wrapped” upon us. Phenomena which periodically end up in impasses, create depressions, and eventually turn into encompassing “civic commotion” which we witness today. In “Tomorrow at the Same Time” video-installation using similar yet different characters I try to show the tautology with the “spectacle society”. Continuously repeating images by their total artificiality demand from the average consumer not to think about the truth. The heroine is as artificial as her own mask. The questions are: Are we capable of getting out of fake and commercialized stereotypes? Will we be able to live in a society where standardized models of competition and achievement are not dominant? Maybe these issues are also stereotypes bulk-produced by the mass culture! |
