”In this exhibition of Martina Miholić's work, a complex and long-term relationship with space is established, which should not be understood as a neutral background, but as an active field of perception and conceptual articulation. The space of the monumental cellars of Diocletian's Palace actually becomes a dynamic matrix in which different rhythms, frequencies, and historical layers intertwine (similar to the author's earlier immersive exhibition project Dream Waves: Hyper Drift, realized in the Grič Tunnel in Zagreb, where the architecture of the underground passage was activated as a dynamic „laboratory“ of historical memory and a futuristic landscape). Such a space should be understood as a relational system in which meaning is produced through the interrelations of the material, the sensory, and the temporal, or as a dense fabric of relations in which spatiality is constructed precisely through experience and is not pre-given. In this artistic constellation, space becomes a true performative actor that co-shapes the conditions of perception and experience, so the installation enters into a dialogue with recent understandings of space as a process, rather than as a static category. The artist approaches it through a process of careful listening and gradual appropriation, developing a sensitive relationship to its internal currents, microclimatic conditions, and latent tensions, thereby building upon her own previous speculative and posthumanist-oriented poetics.”
From the foreword, Dalibor Prančević
