\u00a0<\/strong>From 23 December 2020 “Atletika” gallery and artist Jurga Barilait\u0117 invite to wander the routes of the exhibition “Lines and Wrinkles” and to follow its links in a digital publication. This publication, created by Barilait\u0117 together with designer Gaile Pranck\u016bnait\u0117, is presented as a \u201cpdf\u201d document \u2013 an introduction to a live presentation of an exhibition.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“Lines and Wrinkles” is the second part of an ongoing project “Dreams of the Living and Delusions of the Dead” developed by Barilait\u0117. The earlier research material was presented as an exhibition \u201cBones and Sediments\u201d at the Artifex Gallery in 2019, while the final part of the research, titled \u201cWeapons and Hideouts\u201d, is to be presented in around one year\u2019s time.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cLines and wrinkles\u201d is a selection of sounds and images of transformations, processes, mergers, splits. The video and audio installation is designed to search for sound and letter as a symbol that manifests itself in the human body and face, as well as to discover the mystery and to forget it. \u201cLines and wrinkles\u201d is also a selection of photo and video collages, an archive of stories and live (non-)ritual actions and performances. The artist merges magical geometry, psycho-geographic map drawings in ancient and new forms, and so-called \u201cblue cord\u201d drawings. These drawings are made with an old tool for drawing straight lines, visualizing the intertwining experiments of physics and life.<\/p>\n

The carcass of the story:<\/p>\n

Support and protection<\/p>\n

Irrational action \u2013 waving one\u2018s hands and feet<\/p>\n

The secret of the world and its oblivion<\/p>\n

Inscribed in dark lines and wrinkles<\/p>\n

Soot, graphite and diamonds<\/p>\n

Sediment and eternal ubiquitous coal<\/p>\n

The excuse of being cold and your back being sore<\/p>\n

A dzirkstel\u012bte* traveling<\/p>\n

In cosmic rays and through quantum tunnels<\/p>\n

The singing king enters<\/p>\n

The falcet vibrates the edges of the vocal folds<\/p>\n

All our secrets begin with the alphabet<\/p>\n

Sound and letter<\/p>\n

Our weapons and hiding places<\/p>\n

Having drawn the smile of a dead little monkey\u201d<\/p>\n

(From poem X by Auris Radzevi\u010dius. I have seen the draft where the words<\/p>\n

\u201cVibrating roar\u201d were blotted out.)<\/p>\n
