This Is Not a Fact

Bringing together artistic statements that may at first appear incompatible, the exhibition is built on contrasts between the rigidity of technological systems and the vulnerability of the body, between the endless digital flow and the silence of personal transformation, between simulation and material pain.
Despite working in different media and languages, the artists approach a shared threshold where a fact ceases to be a fact. The same fragment of reality may become an archive, a ritual, a resource or a weapon.
In times of fake news, stigmatization of difference and a lack of representation of experiences beyond the normative, it is crucial not to take anything for granted. The choice between what we consider real and what is perceived as reality is not always obvious. The moment of decision often conceals inner conflict, fear and uncertainty, but it is precisely there that the potential for critical thought unfolds. To think sensitively means not only to doubt but also to acknowledge complexity.
That is why the artistic positions in the exhibition differ not only in media but also in perceptual optics. From meticulously constructed installations and hyperrealistic objects to rough painterly surfaces and fragile materials, all of it does not contradict but rather reveals complexity.
Here the artificial intertwines with the real. Technology does not erase memory, it reshapes it. The personal acquires a public dimension and the intimate demands space. Presence is manifested through silence. This Is Not a Fact, paraphrasing Ceci n’est pas une pipe, raises the question not of the object but of truth.
