The focal point of the project SK-320-IB is the everyday survival in the city’s hectic traffic. This is the second presentation of this installation but, this time in a completely different environment; the most popular spot of the city - the city park. The installation will be placed in an area that usually doesn’t hold traffic, thus creating an artificial traffic jam out of the existing large human presence. Its goal is to provoke reactions from the audience, which could be considered as consequences of their own individual experience with the city traffic.
In the case of Ivana Dragsic, the emphasis is being put on the personal interest for activism through an artistic expression. Her work is a product of an omnipresent apathy and calls for alertness, action and reaction towards this aspect of urban living.
It springs up the question of increased awareness and the need for better communal activity. Even this small step is better than no step at all!
