A Thousand Endless Tales – Dancing the Line of Flight (Story Telling)

A "Thousand Endless Tales – Dancing the Line of Flight" (Story Telling) is a group thematic show in two chapters curated by Dimitrina Sevova, focusing on a diversity of artistic positions from different cultural backgrounds.
The exhibition takes a look at various forms of reflection on aesthetic possibilities and political implications of individual stories of ordinary people in relation to society at large. The basic voices are set up by artists invited do develop a broad spectrum of possible approaches and artistic languages, a polyphony of sounds inherent to their different cultural and political backgrounds and age differences, grounded in their daily art practices directed at the social space, rebelling against clean forms and normative channels in bursts of emotional expression.
A "Thousand Endless Tales – Dancing the Line of Flight" (Story Telling) merges forms of living knowledge, opens a range of possible social realities in an infinite space where “story becomes form.” It is concerned with stories that fall out of the corpus of the total library; with the noisy channels, especially the so-called “unscientific” languages, intractable, apocryphal versions, alogisms, dialects… It follows those rocks falling off the tower into a thousand pieces, the bugs and errors that break up the polished surface, in stories murmured outside the language of dominance, those stories whose peak gets broken, the plateaus opening up the space to the horizon beyond great narratives, in small details, characters, traces carrying the stamp of superstition, dirty words, nonsense, frenzy, troublemaking, riot.
