Performance: This is not a representation
Come to Leire de Meer's public performance as part of the Fotograf Zone festival, which will take place on October 8 at Tempo in Smíchov!
Artist Leire de Meer (they/he/she) proposes a form of non-verbal dialogue in "This is not a representation". This participatory ritual explores the physical and political labor of holding bodies, reclaiming a sense of interdependence.
The audience will receive a set of instructions. The audience will be invited to gently wrap another participant in a vast white cloth, lift them together with others, walk in a circle, and lay them down. You may choose to be wrapped, to help lift, or to bear witness. Through this silent, repetitive cycle, the audience tansforms into a community, practicing a direct act of collective care and responsibility. The large white canvas, both tool and witness, becomes a shared membrane, a cocoon, a shroud.
No prior experience is needed. The artist will facilitate a safe and respectful environment for all to participate at their own comfort level.

Michal Kalhous – Goosefoot and Raspberries, The Road to Victory
The exhibition *Goosefoot and Raspberries, The Road to Victory* presents a series of photographs created over the recent period. It is an experimental tool of synthesis and a search for a path to fulfillment. At the same time, it is a purposeful, captivating exploration of suddenness and their relationships. *Goosefoot and Raspberries, The Road to Victory* is once again an attempt at a dialogue between inner experience and a higher, transcendent order.
