Zuzana Růžičková (1982) graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague, graphics and drawing studio with prof. Vladimír Kokolia (2006-2012). She experiments with materials and printing techniques. She creates her own printing technologies (linocut printed from depth, solder trough, plastic printing - scanning of green algae from walls, gauze print, printing from a wax matrix on gauze).
Her work is characterized by a magical conception of the perceived world, visual humor and a specific approach to the theme, which she does not forget to transform into a mythical mythology. She also does not avoid serious topics arising from personal experience.

Born on the same day of the same year, they were inseparable, and yet in their work they were able to be individual. This exhibition presents them to us in a slightly different form than we know them. At the same time, four authors will present their works in a more intimate form at the exhibition. For some, the meeting with Jitka and Květa was an initiation for their work, for others it was a deep friendship, and one was their companion and a lifelong admirer.

From the found objects and electroacoustic devices, the author creates temporary constellations in which everyday things take on new meanings and forms. In her hands, inanimate things transform into a kind of tiny robotic creatures, showing its own character and mood through movement and sound.

Two worlds. One where there are right and sharp angles, but it is still soft and supple. And the second, translucent, full of haze and hoarfrost, where only what is not pointed is possible. The first room has a flat ceiling, the second is vaulted. Or is it the other way around? But it doesn't matter at all, only what they have in common is important.

From 20 October to 4 November 2021

A sound installation where each "speaker-cricket" is producing its own unique singing. While we sleep, crickets sing along to our slumber. Since we often listen to them in chorus, as part of the project "Los grillos del sueňo," we decided to look for the singularity in each cricket. During a workshop, every kid raised a couple of crickets and recorded the male?s singing at night. The short film that accompanies the installation has its own story: in response to inevitable insect extinction, a group of scientists developed a species of electronic crickets so that even after they?re gone, crickets can continue to make music while we dream."

Tereza Říčanová (1974) illustrates books for children, complements them with her own, often handwritten texts. She paints flowers and dreams on glass, creates so-called underpaintings on glass, where the colors in the foreground must always be applied first, then further layered. She masters graphic techniques, prints fires, mountains, horror fairy tales or a cow's bum on a satin maker, and has letterpress at home. In her library you will find countless diaries, she fills them with, among other things, revelations, her dreams, which she immortalizes with text and drawing
