Kateřina Vincourová: Skin Care

I build "cages" and try to capture the echoes of my thoughts in them.

Kateřina Vincourová conceives the exhibition space at the Rudolfinum Gallery as a landscape conceived in the form of a journey that fluidly transforms throughout the individual spaces. She integrates everything that interests her into her spatial drawings and installations, including the space in which she exhibits. Her work continuously reflects the nature of utopian and dystopian worlds, functioning as a critical commentary on contemporary society. The artist explores the possibilities and characteristics of these worlds—permanent and impermanent places—and, by sharing a map of her stories and thoughts, enables collective experience and awareness. In this particular case, the author considers the arrangement of the individual rooms in a circle and their permeability in both directions, where the beginning is also the end and vice versa, to be important. In this way, she presents the cyclical nature of all things, the endless return from the end to the beginning, destruction and rebirth.
