IKON. Žilvinas Kempinas
In order to enter the exhibition I must go through a mixed media installation. A video of a forest in gray scale is projected on to walls and the slim, white, wooden or plastic sticks that block the room and create a path. The floor is glossy and black. I enjoyed the journey, yet it…
