How to disappear completely and never be found
October - November 2021
CCA Typograpy, Krasnodar, russia, with Tatiana Antoshina, Eva Arakcheeva, Aleksandra Demina, Alina Desyatnichenko, Arkadiy Nasonov, Anastasia Potemkina, Daria Pravda, Aram Saakyan, Ekaterina Shcherbakova, Svetlana Khollis, Julie Sas, Raphaël Fabre, Delphine Chapuis Schmitz, Florence Jung, David Horvitz, Slavs and Tatars
Curated by Ekaterina Shcherbakova & Ekaterina Shcherbakova
The project is dedicated to the fragile boundaries of our identities. How is identity constructed? What is behind the bureaucratic description of a person? How does language affect the formation of one’s worldview? How does technological progress affect a person’s perception of themselves and their relationship with society?
How to disappear completely and never be found proposes to leave the solid ground of the so-called "human” paradigm and, as Paul B. Preciado formulated, to find some kind of free energy that will allow you to live differently. In other words, to be radically alive.
The project is initiated by Ekaterina Shcherbakova, who met another Ekaterina Shcherbakova and invited her for a collaboration in writing an exhibition. The text and an installation by Ekaterina Shcherbakova functions as a meta-work, containing the individual voices of other artists.
Artworks presented in this exhibition combine into a multiple identity, composed of various aspects — references to personal and territorial mythologies, on the manifestation of unusual abilities, hypersensitivity, dramatisation, play, and appropriation.
The exhibition features installation, photography, painting, video, and drawing. The project become a platform for a discursive program that includes performances, workshops and meetings with artists.
Supported by Pro Helvetia - Swiss Arts Council, Goethe-Institut.
