Lokart 3.0
fine art biennale

Our sense of reality has changed irrevocably in recent decades as a result of our social fragmentation. In the context of this process, the proliferation of social media has become a kind of lock between us and reality. It is no coincidence that, as a result, our understanding of reality is increasingly dominated by processes whereby more and more of us are navigating our increasingly chaotic reality individually, relying on our own individual means. It is as if the social fabric around us has unravelled and we are left alone. As the remnants of our social systems are increasingly distrusted, the certainty of the individual and his or her own direct physical or psychological experience has been valorised, and from this, countless individual narratives are now being constructed. Not unrelated to these processes is the fact that many people have become more receptive than before to body culture and psychology, which resonates in the interpretative space of the exhibited works.The physical and psychological reality of our bodies remains the last basic unit of our we can no longer dissect in the mirror of reality. For the individual, the body has thus become the most elementary surface of perception and communication. Lokart explores the body as a unit that is the basic elementary carrier of our symbols, signs and even stories. Through the complex processes of our perception, the reception of any human body, however stylized, triggers narrative interpretations within us. The exhibition aims to provide a number of examples of this phenomenon.
