The idea behind the form of this exhibition was that most of the gallery space was inaccesable for the audience. The visitor rolled the ellipse on the plan of the gallery during the walk from one work to the next along the prepared corridor. The work spread in next rooms while the viewer could just look inside through the framed plexiglas hanging on the corridor wall.

The sceening in the corner of a black room*, breaking in 2/3 by the perpendicular between the two walls. The ship sails from the right to the left, patiently and necessarely conquer the next waves. It looks like the ship trying to get muddle through the corner.

—Artificial Fullmoon*

Artificial Fullmoon is an affirmation of mistakes in reading and understanding, based on non-translatable pun in Polish linked to Baudrillard sentence from The Conspiracy of Art: “Odkąd rzeczy stały się wytwarzanymi produktami, artefaktami, znakami, towarami, PEŁNIĄ SZTUCZNĄ, ironiczną rolę mocą samego swego istnienia.” This way the fragment of Baudrillard's sentence becomes Artificial Fullmoon.
—The End of the Performance's Experience
