I exhibited the Pena project, anarchic virtual space that I created and curated.

The PENA

Anonymous virtual space, an endless labyrinth with works by various authors, 2021-2022.

Pena is built as a virtual network of interconnected "bubbles" where you can embed your artwork or add panorama bubbles of real and unreal places. Artists in a common workspace create worlds in which art merges with its external environment, and anonymity allows you to try on various subjectivities, including multiple ones.

The theme: The exhibition opens a dialogue space for reflection on the path of an artist facing a situation of censorship, possible political persecution for openly expressing views.

What an artist shell to do? To invent a new safe language or boycott artistic practice? To remove dangerous topics from creativity or remove creativity from a place where these topics are dangerous?
To make the fact of censorship part of an artistic device or ... ?

The wide geography and intensity of the professional community's response to the open call topic show the acuteness of this issue today and the importance of creating spaces for the development of artistic discourse in this field. It is important that in this project an international artistic dialogue is born with the participation of authors from Israel, the USA, Ukraine, Belarus and Russia.

Where does ethics end and censorship begin? What is the difference between censorship and the specifics, declared restrictions of each specific site? These and other issues will be discussed at the discussion with the authors and participants of the exhibition as part of its opening.
