About the event
The HYMN
by Sergiy Petlyuk [UA]
The artist will give an artist talk about his practice and present his video installation „The Hymn”, which he has been working on during his residency in Aarhus. It includes more than 180 national hymns of states from all over the world. The texts are combined into one long text. In this way a new piece is being created – where completely antagonistic contents can meet and form a compositional unity. The new “united” text can be understood only in English – a language that can embody globalist tendencies, “blur” borders and homogenize differences.
Sergiy Petlyuk is a visual and media artist from Lviv [UA]. Sergiy Petlyuk works with social and political critical discourses, explores the effects of social stereotypes, the impact of mass media on human values and the influence of social and political manipulations on the formation of identity.
