Desire Path

Agata Ingarden (born in Poland in 1994) develops scenarios of speculative futures in her works and opens up new spaces for imagination and experience. Her visual vocabulary surprises with unexpected connections between everyday objects and natural materials, industrial processes and organic forms. In this field of tension, the works appear both alien and familiar. They play with human and non-human scales and are reminiscent of past cultures and techniques. Ingarden works across media, from installations and sculptures to video works.

The exhibition unfolds a multi-layered scenario in which each floor represents not only a spatial but also a conceptual transition. A dramaturgical movement unfolds over three galleries: from the landscape as an open, processual world, to the house as a living organism, to the inner self, which oscillates between protection and control. Ingarden's works are not self-contained narratives, but experimental arrangements. They function as laboratories for possible futures – scenarios that are tested through shifts in perspective, through material in transformation, through bodies in dissolution and regeneration.
