 Nothing happening / Res no passa

The exhibition "Nothing happening", together with Maria Wasilewska, is held at Centre Cívic Barceloneta in Barcelona until June 19, 2025, we invite you 🙂. We would like to thank Maria Fiter for her help in the production and organization of the exhibition.
The exhibition is the result of a polar expedition to Spitsbergen in the Petuniabukta region in the summer (June/July) of 2024. The resulting records in the form of photographs, sounds, videos and spatial installations are the artist’s response to the disappearing world of glaciers and Arctic permafrost. The exposition will have the character of their personal reflections, feelings of sorrow for the disappearing, at an alarming rate, almost before our eyes – Beautiful. It is there that the rapid warming of the climate can be observed in the most poignant way. The aim of the artistic project is to draw attention to the disappearing glaciers.
The subject is in line with the year 2025 declared by the UN in August 2024 as the International Year for the Protection of Glaciers.
