Félix Blume: Dream's Cricket
sound installation, workshop
September 30 - October 31, 2021
sound gallery IGLOO
Komensky Street No. 10
Jihlava
Curator: Miloš Vojtěchovský
A sound installation where each "speaker-cricket" is producing its own unique singing. While we sleep, crickets sing along to our slumber. Since we often listen to them in chorus, as part of the project "Los grillos del sueňo," we decided to look for the singularity in each cricket. During a workshop, every kid raised a couple of crickets and recorded the male?s singing at night. The short film that accompanies the installation has its own story: in response to inevitable insect extinction, a group of scientists developed a species of electronic crickets so that even after they?re gone, crickets can continue to make music while we dream."

Tereza Říčanová (1974) illustrates books for children, complements them with her own, often handwritten texts. She paints flowers and dreams on glass, creates so-called underpaintings on glass, where the colors in the foreground must always be applied first, then further layered. She masters graphic techniques, prints fires, mountains, horror fairy tales or a cow's bum on a satin maker, and has letterpress at home. In her library you will find countless diaries, she fills them with, among other things, revelations, her dreams, which she immortalizes with text and drawing

The exhibition Dark Night of the Soul presents the work of a group of visual artists, whose work is characterized by increased sensitivity to the current social situation. The exhibit tries to capture the ubiquitous feelings of anxiety, insecurity, and disorientation caused by frustration stemming from the inability to influence the reality of a collapsing world. Feelings that lead us to a state of helplessness and stagnation, which is, however, an integral part of a process that we are not yet able to see from a longer-term perspective. The name of the exhibition also refers to this state. It returns to the phrase that appeared in the sixteenth century in the literary work of the Spanish saint John of the Cross. It captures the state the soul finds itself in when it loses its existing support, the reality ceases to make sense, it is difficult to understand it and find an explanation. However, the soul enters this phase in order to gain new certainties. In this context, contemporary psychology operates with the term psychospiritual crisis. It refers to a transformative process with healing potential caused by a life crisis. Although it can have an external form of mental disorder, it is a stage of a person's personal development, which can lead to a fuller life and firmer health. But do we as a society still have the strength, energy and need to reach this stage?
