The exhibition of Matyáš Chochola is a visual epic and a philosophical reflection on the form of our world, a world of people at a time when the boundaries between reality and dream, idea and subject have already been erased yet. The history of the World in his interpretation are the history of thought and life as such, because we are one of the temporary forms of the energy of the Universe. We are a part of transformations and transsubstantiations of elements which unite us with the beginning of the Universe and persist after humankind even beyond its end. We are the moment of eternal duration without beginning and the end.
The exhibition consists of seven images symbolising seven stages of human development, when the beginning and the end drown in an impenetrable darkness. The narrative arch begins in the chaos at the dawn of life and consciousness (Eternal Darkness) and continues with the circular order of nature (Quattro Stagioni) and the shamanic cultures (Shamanic) equal partners for the natural forces, to the era when humans established themselves as rulers over the anthropocentric universe (Alchemic Tiltyard of History, Ezo Mystic, Pharaoh´s Chamber). Another fascinating place is the MCH Twin Peaks Black Lodge, the entrance into a parallel universe, whose existence is nowadays regarded as possible even among the practitioners of modern science. Our knowledge reaches so far, that some of what has been considered unthinkable becomes a possibility.
