The Law of Time is a four-channel spatial video installation that will premiere at the Rudolfinum Gallery in Prague at the group exhibition Shifted Realities, from 16 March 2023 to 11 June 2023. The Law of Time thematizes our subconscious, fears and dreams that relate to the future. The story builds an atmosphere of uncertainty in a world that has narrowed down to a few rooms – most resembling a theater stage or a movie set.

The main protagonists are two artists, a man and a woman, who build these hermetically sealed environments themselves and voluntarily enclose themselves in them. The couple constantly oscillates on the edge between reality and fiction. They seek their certainty only in their work, but it is governed by its own laws. The individual scenes of the video installation cycle, change slightly and together form an endless loop. The story of the two visual artists thus has no beginning or end, only the present moment, which is a state of permanent uncertainty. Not only the two protagonists, but also the audience can project their own fears or hopeful expectations onto it. That’s the Law of Time.
