Ideological Void

2013

Ideological Void is a long-term investigation into the ideological materialism and connected historical narratives established as hegemonial after the fall of the Iron Curtain. The ongoing artistic intervention deals with a series of the ruins that show traces of portrait removal or destruction bearing witness to their lost active socio-political role. The missing busts are re-molded from a soluble material and installed on the empty plinths.
