[While the Trees Were Big]

While the Trees Were Big

The exhibition "While the Trees Were Big" is an artistic interpretation of the physical phenomenon of white noise.

The endless flow of information, the digitalization of the modern world, and the hurried rhythm of constant movement often prevent one from focusing on oneself, relaxing,
and feeling at peace. These factors largely have a negative impact on the human psyche, putting it in a state of stress. White noise—a monotonous, dull sound—is used to combat
this feeling, as it helps to calm the mind, relax, and promote sleep. It has a similar effect on infants in the first months of their life, reminiscent of the sounds they heard in the womb,
a time of happiness and carefreeness.

The exhibition project "While the Trees Were Big" reveals and emphasizes the meanings embedded in this phenomenon.

The muted color palette, with occasional bursts of color, ghostly images conveyed as
if through the mist of early morning, envelops the viewer and immerses them in a meditative state of peaceful contemplation. Reflecting the outer and inner beauty of both nature and humanity through soft plasticity and varied textures, the presented works portray human behavior in different elements and in encounters with natural phenomena—from observing
a solar eclipse to flying into space.

The snow-white trees placed in the exhibition space seem to merge with the whiteness
of the ceiling, symbolizing the boundlessness of time that exists and flows regardless
of human presence or space.

Curator: Anastasia Artemova
Participants: Maria Safronova, Egor Plotnikov,
Taisiya Chernoritskaya, Maxim Petrushin, Anna Kuznetsova-Smertina, Alexey Alpatov,
Nikita Chernoritsky, Daniil Shatrov, Anastasia Artemova, Stefan Herbst.
