The concept of the project
In the far corner of the hall is illuminated by a point light source is a sheet with the recipe for "wine". At the opening, guests are invited to try "wine", made from this recipe. Later the inspector pours wine for everyone who have reached the required age. The installation includes both the real portion and the factors influencing perception. An important role is played by the communication between visitors and the discussion of its results. "Wine", which is part of the work, relates to this wine about the same as the image in the painting correlate with the model. The use of "wine" is almost equated with the interaction with "ordinary" work of art. The exception is that a work presents not only a material object, but also some structureless substance. Whose effects on the viewer varies from the presence of the liquid to sit as changes in sensation, and in thinking. The viewer has the opportunity to compare this impact, the information contained in the text with their own ideas about the present fault. Photo refers to the image of Bacchus and suites in European painting. Photography introduces the figure of the artist, hiding under the guise of Bacchus: the artist is not so much passive vanished by the author as an actant, necessary for development of the action, in the space of the exposition or meaning.
