ALEX BRAJKOVIĆ
EARTHLINES
Galerija Karas
25.4. – 16.5.2023.
On Tuesday, 25.4.2023. Alex Brajković opens his solo exhibition entitled Earthlines, at 7 pm in Karas Gallery (Ulica kralja Zvonimira 58).
In his foreword, Davor Sanvincenti emphasizes:
Human progress and ecology do not share the same nature. Today, the human factor has been introduced into the ecological continuum through the conditions of resource exploitation conditioned by geo-economic and geopolitical dynamics. This happens on its own terms and does not privilege us above the way we think about life. The internal mechanisms of ecology are based on the dimensions beyond our human values, ethics, and vision. They are rooted in the ontological sphere with their own rules, where humans are not the sole relevant aspect, even at a time when our catastrophic actions endanger planetary collapse.
