Olga Nieścier: Dress

Atlas Sztuki Ensemble

ALWAYS A WOMAN. Never one, her world of beautiful things, fears, important matters, the deepest. She chose a dress, and thus allowed herself to take a picture. First she and her interior, then the dress, the lens and those who want to co-create the picture. It is a process that will help to remove subjective sensations from the Picture; to leave the truth that is deeply embedded in each of us, so that - by seeing the other in his distinctiveness - we see what escapes us, preventing us from reaching the world.

YOU CHOOSE an existing composition. Thanks to you, it will avoid the finished Form. You chose the one that moved you, maybe it's just a silent signal, maybe a moment that makes you want to celebrate. Because here you find a diamond ready to be sanded. Take it gently in your hands. You touch the achievements of an earlier Person. Continue them. Only together we can save the truth - this is the only way we can save ourselves.

YOU CREATE. We want it to be unfettered, free creativity, so that you appear as an image of an intriguing mystery of yourself. You can move each of the characters as you want. You can delete it and enter another one. We give you chaos at your disposal and want you to subordinate it to the creative law, and thus help organise the world. Do it honestly. A picture is created, a painting record of what you carry within you, what is suddenly built outside of you. When you create a picture, the world slows down for a moment.

WAITING. We are waiting together now, watching the other specifics involved in the eliminations cleanse themselves of what is not important; how others choose your concrete to further develop it or reject it without finding enough radiance of truth in it (because maybe you only managed to show your own mask). The painting freed itself from the embrace of the finished Form. Always different, and still the same. Another image in Atlas Sztuki. Yours. Still at the end, but also at the beginning of the long road of breaking through and dazzling the world. The image that arouses the greatest liking is always at the beginning. Although it will be painted and shown in Atlas Sztuki, it will be only a stage, the first of the signs on the way to regaining a lost sense of reality... But even then it will be possible to say: ART HAS NEVER SEEN SO MUCH.

YOU WRITE DOWN. The moment seems dazzling, the most interesting, the most intimate, and therefore real. Another concrete appears, it becomes a reality, still waiting. You leave your Picture open - in a place where you show yourself to others with your choice. By leaving your signature, you give us a guarantee that what you have done is authentic. That you have come as close as possible to the Picture, which presents an unobstructed view of you. It must come to light whether the richness, the diversity of the inner experience, can be translated into the richness, the diversity of art. It is wisdom and a gift hidden in the form of an Image that has renounced the knowledge of self-realization.
