Strange Reality is an abstract series of works based on documentary: Lucky People Centre- International. Lucky People Centre is a Swedish artistic collective which mostly produced during the 1990s where the rising popularity of electronic music as well as growing anxiety among people related to exploitation and globalisation faced artists with a new reality. The documentary is a changing collage of visuals and sound as well as a collection of interviews with spiritual leaders, scientists, ideologists, naturalists, and hedonists whose message to the world seems to be the same. In the maze of the civilised world, human beings seem to be less important than they used to. We forget what life is about, we tend to be greedy, and incentives are being given from every direction, we NEED, we WANT, we HAVE TO HAVE IT! It looks as if we couldn’t live without THINGS; therefore, we’re surrounding ourselves with tons of gadgets, this way supplementing more essential and yet at the same time viewed as already outdated principles. Civilisation makes us tiresome, tense, less patient, therefore less happy. By faking reality we forget what real happiness can feel like, how simple and – yet how pretentious in the eyes of the modern society – it can be. “Memento mori- meaning remember dying… Because if you remember about dying you may remember what life is about”- (Sogyal Rinpoche). Life, in fact is very fragile and too precious, something we unfortunately seem to forget. We lead among animals and having this advantage we should make most to preserve the beauty of this world for future generations. “If we leave the protection of the last virgin forests to the monkeys -it would be much more efficient than to leave it to all these big conferences on the protection of forests” (Bruno Manser) Life is very simple… it’s “constant dance of life and death”( Sogyal Rinpoche). Peacefully and in symbiosis – that’s how primitive tribes which understand the healthy relationship and benefits of living in par with Mother Nature live. My work is an attempt to show the FLOW of life and death, the beauty and simplicity of wonders which surround us, although those seem to be invisible/ hidden. We run in need for more, better, and bigger, but isn’t it that the bigger and more powerful can be found within us? Yet we don’t fully understand …
