“Forget-Me-Not”, Sebastian Boulter
Installation
The official name of the flower is Myosotis Sylvatica. The petals of this tiny flower are approximately 5mm long. In many languages the flower is called Forget-Me-Not. In 2015 “Forget-Me- Not” -symbol was elaborated in the series of events dedicated to Centennial of the Armenian Genocide*. In a poetic and at the same time in wordless way, this flower carries the whole weight of the memory of the genocide. The ballast came close to Armenians again after the fraternity of Turks, the Azerbaijanis, who on the 19th of September 2023 conquered Armenian populated Nagorno-Karabakh. Since January the 1st 2024 the Republic of Nagorno-Karabakh (in Armenian, Republic of Artsakh) has ceased to exist.
*The Turkish government acknowledged the genocide in 1919, and the perpetrators were sentenced to death. However, Turkey's first president Kemal Atatürk and his followers have denied that the genocide ever happened. Turkey has also forbidden, under threat of punishment, to mention the "incident" of 1914–1918 in school education.
“The power within”, Semina Milarokosta
Installation with sculpture and photography
Figures move across different places and times;
their hands become witnesses of a quest.
The real and the unreal intertwine;
weaving a world where matter and vision
can no longer be separated.
These personas, hybrids of human and machine,
carry a subtle spark of hope.
Within the ambiguous, within the in-between,
emerges the possibility of another world.
“IL MECCANISMO”, Alessandro Vassilas
Milena Nowak
