Through the prism of being trapped in conventions and the magic of reading between the lines suggested by the title Endless Return, Ziva Drvaric and Gasper Kunsic are presenting their third joint exhibition. Their individual artistic poetics remain visually and conceptually distinctive, clear and address the experience of a world characterized by entrapment in the established, the conventional and the mundane, and the evocation of meanings hidden behind symbols, social phenomena and seemingly ordinary objects.

            Ziva Drvaric's objects and images question the function of useful objects, abstract them and invite us to contemplate established ideas and what we expect from the material world. The result is a play of objects and their interaction with the exhibition space. Like the repetition of a word to the point where it loses its meaning, the objects on display encourage us to consider the taken-for-granted use of everyday and ubiquitous tools, such as nails, switches and windows, which already inhabit every space we enter. The artist frees these objects from their primary functions and, thus relieved, they can enter into a play of the visible and the invisible, suggesting an alternation of real and mental spaces between which we exist on a daily basis. The mental space, as an extension of the real, allows us an individual interpretation of reality and everyday life in which things exist not only to be activated by us, but also for us to be activated by them. The gallery installation opens a witty glimpse into the background of the refined installations of art exhibitions, where nails manage to outgrow their basic purpose and freely wind on the other side of the walls, while switches underline the constant flow of switching and constant change within the everyday.

In this materialisation, Endless Return is an image of a world subject to the endless return of the same, which, in the visual expression of Ziva Drvaric and Gasper Kunsic, escapes black and white existence, constant binary choice and the repetition of the same events and concepts over and over again. The exhibited artworks subtly move us out of the established tracks and direct our gaze towards what remains hidden in plain sight.
