What can be seen behind another person’s closed eyelids?

The space of the installation created by the Randomroutines duo (Tamás Kaszás and Krisztián Kristóf) is filled by traces and remains suggestive of an unknown post-collapse state. The crystalline structure of a peculiar internal world – one between dream and wakefulness – is revealed through the splinters and film-thin scratches.

A fragile reality unfolds from the ruins, collapsed neon tubes and images scratched onto broken and smutted glass plates. It can fall into bits and be erased at any moment and is bound to disappear in an instant like afterimages behind closed eyelids. While this is happening, we can catch a glimpse of the consciously created and collectively experienced dreams of lucid dreamers through the superimposed layers of scenes scratched on the glass plates.
