The last of the winters

Look outside the window. It’s the last snow ever. Would you go outside? Would you taste it? Is it easier to enjoy than regular snowy days, that you’ve already seen? You chose not to celebrate previous snows. What will you do today?

There will be no more winters. We’re almost sure of that. That one season will come and will become the last one. But we’ll never know until the next one comes. Powerless, worried, hidden. This is the last winter we saw. Almost one year after  the beginning of the war that was not supposed to come ever again. Winter that was presumed to be one of those harsh ones. Winter. That dreamy land between ideas, blankets and deathly, freezing chains that does not let any light inside. Narnia or depression? Bruegel, Wyspianski, Friedrich, Joanna Karpowicz –  visual representation of winter has wonderful traditions. But let’s not romanticise too much. Winter could be beautiful and ugly. Winter could be death. Winter could be you resigning of the dreams you once had. Should we all fall asleep and wait till spring comes?

We’re looking for works related to winter mindset and aesthetics, climate catastrophe and winterish dreams. And – we do not look for answers, we’re looking for poetic statements from different parts of the world.

Momentum Gallery 08: Endings | Time machine

Endings | Time machine

Nothing is settled when times are shifting. Neither lines, colors, dimensions or words. Houses are moving, so do streets, names and concrete. Rituals, categories and daily life – transform. And the change comes closer, inevitably. Nostalgia and lost time are a part of the safety net that we like to sew everyday in front of the unknown tomorrow. During the exhibition we want and need to take a look at those changes. Spaces and areas where we’re welcoming new perspectives, exploating what is gone and hoping for better future. Material reality, that should be the core, transforms as well. And this would be the main idea of the exhibition. Nostalgia and material melancholies – technologies that are gone and those overtaking the future. The Sims, Second life, TikTok or NFT. Destroyed pavements of your childhood. Broken windows and first mobile phones. Everything that seemed to be the turning point of the future though now it’s already unnecessary, forgotten or just covered in dust. Our old dreams are today’s trash. Burden that we’re carrying. How would you deal with that?

We do not look for answers, we’re looking for poetic statements from different parts of the world.
