Installation / text / paintings / photographs / video art/

Installations, texts, paintings and photographs make up the unique exhibition of Kamila Ženata 2. FLOOR, the theme of which is an empty apartment where the dreams of those who lived there have remained. The exhibition was on view in the unconventional environment of an apartment in Myslíkova Street 9, Prague from November 4 to 30.

The theme of the exhibition is an empty apartment on the 2nd floor, where the dreams of those who lived there have remained. The uniqueness and uniqueness of this exhibition lies in the fact that the artist used the space of the four-room apartment, where she herself once lived with her family, to place here dream stories that are told by hint, symbol, memory, glimpse, elusive atmosphere, stillness but also volatile movement. In a world where time rules, nothing goes back.

The omnipresent text guides with its messages into stories, monologues, dreams, imaginations, into the context of some mysterious event that takes place „somewhere“ and „to someone“, somewhere where time has stopped, in a space that its inhabitants fill with their dreams, just as we fill the empty space of existence with our inner contents.
