Balans

The fundamental principle of a message is that it must be created, delivered, and understood. But how is it further interpreted? How do words influence our actions, our relationships, society, and the very country we inhabit? Can we determine which words are the 'right' ones? And what is their weight? In a post-truth era, how do we decide what is good or evil when everyone’s moral compass points in a different direction? The erosion of values we once considered the pillars of society is omnipresent.

The Balance project stands against conflict and totalitarianism, while simultaneously serving as a way to realize that things only function through the maintenance of equilibrium. It remains questionable how and where balance exists in today's world, but we can at least attempt to find it.

The words used in the object are taken from the song III Čiary (Three Lines), written by Zuzana Budzaková for the band Lēra.
