Exploring the Mythological Pantheon of "Alien Space"

Installation "Alien Space" stands as a captivating exploration of the evolving mythologies and belief systems in society that is developping technology very quickly. By combining videos depicting aliens, robots, and TV speakers within the immersive space, the installation invites viewers to contemplate the emergence of a new mythology in our modern age. "Alien Space" becomes a symbolic pantheon, where new gods and mythical beings reside, challenging our perceptions of the unknown and the boundaries of our imagination.

As viewers step into the installation, they find themselves surrounded by latex balloons forming two corridors that guide them towards a central circular space. These balloons, resembling living cells, futuristic buildings, and laboratories, act as portals into an alternate reality, an alien realm that mirrors our human constructs and belief systems. The fragility of the installation becomes apparent as the balloons gradually lose air, gently descending and falling to the floor. This deliberate act of deflation symbolizes the delicate nature of our beliefs and mythologies. Just as the balloons require continual maintenance and reinforcement to stay afloat, our belief systems also demand care and attention. Neglect can lead to their eventual collapse, much like the self-destruction we witness within the installation.
In a thought-provoking twist, the act of sustaining the installation rests upon the gallerists themselves. This interactive aspect serves as a metaphor for the continuous maintenance required in upholding our collective mythology. It reminds us that belief systems are not static but dynamic, requiring our participation and engagement to endure. "Alien Space" prompts us to reflect on the emergence of new mythologies in the context of extraterrestrial life. Through the amalgamation of videos depicting aliens, robots, and TV speakers, the installation introduces a pantheon of new gods
