Lauba’s project cycle Pass it on  continues with exhibitions of works by young authors and this time it hosts the artist Gabrijela Perak.

The exhibition Stay hydrated presents an artistic crisis witch author confronted with drawings, ink and watercolors. Artists often perceive their state of (un)creativity as apocalyptic, nervousness, listlessness, laziness and doubt in their artistic vocation reign. This is also the first crisis Gabrijela decided to face. We often get this reminder from the surrounding media – hydrate yourself, drink water to stay healthy and energetic. In her work, the artist reconsiders the place of creation and crisis and decided to combine these two, not so separate spheres of growth through life in order to mark the exhibition for herself as a reminder that crises can be beautiful and rewarded with new ideas. Here, in the exhibited works, the brain and the hands do not function together or function on some kind of subconscious level, here it break down into Gabrijelas parts, read her inner diary, expose her public, without any shame they celebrate this painstaking crisis. If you asked me what is on the works, what are the names, whose portraits are they, I wouldn’t be able to answer you, says Gabrijela.

The opening is on February 28, starting at 7 p.m. in Lauba’s cafe Beznaziva.

Entrance is free, and you can view the exhibition on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. until March 13, when we start with the third exhibition of this year’s Pass it on cycle.
