WHAT DID IS WORKING ON ATM
29/06 Bangkok Art and Culture Centre // A/V Premiere
EOX:RELEASING SPIRITS
is an audio-visual tale based on artists narrative retrospective view on process of change, where boundaries of time and place of action are bleared within different realms of one’s existence. Dream realm brings symbolic tissues which investigation and recognition may lead us to important hints and answers that can be a useful guide in our reality and a unique compass on one’s path to self- acceptance and evolution of „I”.
RELEASING SPIRITS is a 3rd part of EOX trilogy, investigating the reason of fear in our existence; as a tool of change (if positive) and as well as a device of suppression & control (negative).
[EOX – “End of Xibalba” / Xibalba in Mayan mythology is an underwater world of fear and pain/ ]
According to artists observations and hypothesis- change may appear in our inner life just when we release the scales of past processes, through observation and understanding in a way to make a space for new experiences.
D I D creates us a unique sphere of authorial meditative music and movie, within which we can observe our own cycles of change.

MIRACLES
Whether they exist or not, I leave it to each of you to consider at your own discretion. However something in a miracle-shape started to look from behind the dust of chaos, when listening to the center, I started calling people who were brought by the flow of thoughts, step by step filling in the fragments of pictures that appeared in front of my eyes. (The picture you see above- 1: 1- is one of them). Exactly this image hung in the imagination 2 months before its implementation - and if I followed the critical thinking that said something like: "cool, but where will you find the desert? You live in the west of Poland and you will not be transporting people several hundred kilometers and then tormenting them in full sun for 3 days, people who have just passed their struggles alredy ... "- if I had listened to any voices of this type, none of these pictures would probably have been created. I followed my heart and found Marta.
Marta Karmowska is a great actress and - what I did not know before - a wonderful single Mom. The fact that this strength, with the pure essence of love at the forefront, is able to get us out of every swamp - I saw in Martha's eyes. I saw that she felt this power fully under her skin many times. Like these women, Ania and Tanja who suddenly came to us from far away with their kidows. She felt this power at all times when she created reality from the elements of the impossible. And at that moment I also felt that there there are many processes, mistakes, joys, tippers and triggers, laughter moments ahead, from which there is still a stream of new thoughts, feelings and notes coming up, like:
- Focusing on what we can and forgetting what we cannot
- If I can help anyhow, then it’s only by accompanying someone on the way, learning at the same time from shared moments
- No matter what someone says, looks like, we are exactly the same ‘thing’just located in a different "time"
- That it is always worth telling yourself to stop (if we feel that it is not our direction, when something is creasing inside) and choose a different course.
- Only inside you there is the answer to your question (which does not mean that you need to separate yourself from the outside world - on the contrary, the whole outside world is one big - sometimes quite bent, but still - surface of the mirror and that theres no reason and nowhere to run away from it)
I will write about Marta, Ania, Tanya, Sonia and the process of creating the clip in subsequent posts, until the premiere, because on the one hand, it may lighten our actions a bit, and on the other, it maybe will encourage you, dear reader, to weave own space from yet unknown elements - what after this journey- I definitely recommend : )

READING FOR FREEDOM
AND AUDIOLEVITATION
Meditation meetings based on reading aloud, combined with an audiovisual session and the use of authorial compositions for relaxation / meditation. Come with your favorite book or the one you would like to share with others. Backup copies will also be available to grab from our box- who knows, maybe you will find the words you need at the moment? In a space equipped with a "peaceful" atmosphere (blankets, pillows), we will lie down comfortably, drink hot tea, read aloud to each other and share our thoughts. The meeting will end with a meditative sound session (AUDIOLEVITATION).
