The project's object, situated next
to a house on Križevniška street, is transforming
into an integral part of the street's
architecture. It functions as a simulation of a
miniature living unit, opening towards the street
and attracting views from the passersby with its
open structure. The viewer in a public space
witnesses an exposure of a space that, judging by
its looks, belongs to the intimacy of an anonimous
individual. The tension between the public and the
private, the key emphasis of this installation, is
built precisely by the means of lighting. The
installation thus focuses on the issue of borders
between the the private and the public, the key
agent of their identification and distinction
being the element of light itself. This
installation is signed by a trio of artists that
are active mainly in the world of theatre, which
is where they found the inspiration for the
project.
