For three months Hash­tag Lab host­ed an exhi­bi­tion result­ing from the thor­ough research of artist Mari­na Dysh.Lova into the the­o­ry of the exis­tence of paradise.

After the lost par­adise, every sound is a dis­in­te­gra­tion, and the har­mo­ny and beau­ty of the sur­round­ings are mere­ly an illusion.

Mari­na Dysh.Lova impos­es her own mythol­o­gy and vision of a lost par­adise. She con­structs its image through an anti-nat­ur­al set of things that mat­ter to the artist: an unbit­ed fruit, aban­doned shells, expand­ing foam, bro­ken glass­es, rem­nants of hair, foil, fab­ric. These arte­facts of a grotesque rep­re­sen­ta­tion of real­i­ty tes­ti­fy to a cer­tain para­dox — the per­son expelled from par­adise, in try­ing to regain it, only deforms it and bru­tal­ly inter­feres with its nature, often against their own will.

In the court­yard of the vil­la we host­ed the sec­ond part of the exhi­bi­tion, which con­sists of the instal­la­tion Przepis na Raj cre­at­ed by the artist — an arti­fi­cial­ly con­struct­ed space intend­ed to prompt the view­er to reflect on what par­adise might look like. Ele­ments of the instal­la­tion, such as doors with han­dles, a flower grow­ing from a pipe, and frag­ments of arti­fi­cial fur, com­plete the scene in which real­i­ty inter­twines with imag­i­na­tion. Dysh.Lova’s out­door instal­la­tion will grad­u­al­ly change under the influ­ence of nat­ur­al weath­er con­di­tions, fur­ther under­lin­ing its ephemer­al char­ac­ter. The project offers no ready-made answer, but pos­es ques­tions and invites every­one to their own reflec­tions on the lost and ever-being-lost par­adise, and what it could and should look like today.

The first part of the exhi­bi­tion, com­pris­ing twelve works — a num­ber ref­er­enc­ing the musi­cal prin­ci­ple sym­bol­iz­ing the ten­sion between order and its decon­struc­tion — can be seen in the Bars­ka 38 space known as B383.

The works on dis­play come from the past sev­er­al years and form part of Mari­na Dysh.Lova’s research into the the­o­ry of the exis­tence of par­adise. Although her artis­tic prac­tice encom­pass­es var­i­ous media, in this exhi­bi­tion the artist focus­es on can­vas­es as spa­tial objects, explor­ing ten­sions between mat­ter and idea, the sacred and the pro­fane, myth and eco­log­i­cal reality.
