In Fugere, Victoria Viprada explores flight as both escape and pursuit – fleeing trauma, norms, or the past, while moving toward authenticity and freedom.

The exhibition features analog photography, cyanotype, video, and sculptural glass works, forming a poetic, emotionally charged landscape where memory, body, and time intersect.

Rather than linear narratives, Viprada presents fragmented visual episodes that evoke absence, presence, and transformation.

A video installation of circling crows creates a hypnotic, disordered sense of time, contrasting with the quiet stillness of cyanotypes and resin-sealed objects.

Viprada’s process embraces vulnerability and material experimentation.

Her use of slow, hand-driven techniques reintroduces the body into image-making, turning each work into a ritual of preservation.

Fragile materials like glass and resin become metaphors for memory’s resilience.

Fugere is not disappearance, but a symbolic act – a refusal of imposed identities and a reclamation of inner space. It invites viewers to inhabit the in-between, where remembering and becoming converge.
