The haunting past pulses beneath the skin, while the sharp edges of drone-like flowers emerge from the walls, evoking a sense of danger and anxiety about what lies ahead. The works of Zuza Golińska and Cezary Poniatowski respond to the surrounding reality in a moment of transition, marked by the erosion and failure of political and social structures, climate catastrophe, and technocratic acceleration. Embodying the persistent impact of the past — both metaphorically and materially — their works reflect on speculative future scenarios, where reality and fiction become inextricably intertwined in a moment suspended in anticipation.
