Home (Museum of the City of Skopje. Skopje, 2012)
Home is a project that is generated from several directions of thinking and is a set of several content units and levels of interpretation. The project is a re-interpretation of domestic space by changing the context in which it is located, or by drawing on its basis in the museum space. Space exists only as an idea and its parts are marked with the words. The method by which this is implemented is critically reflective site-specificity, i.e. considerations for defining the here and now; critical thinking about relations that occur instantaneously. Site-specificity here is seen not only as a concrete, specific place or part of the architecture, but also as concrete and specific relations. These relations are noted in the participatory aspect of the project. The fact is that the audience is both a visitor to the exhibition and guest at the home. The visitors in this case have the choice to decide in which space they are actually located. The question they face is whether they visitors to a museum, or guests in one's home? Hence the fundamental question of the project: How can one space be determined as a museum, and another one as home?
Through representation of the idea of home and its segments (rooms and objects) in the museum space, it becomes a work of art itself, part of the art system, not in terms of facility, but as a bearer of meaning. In historical terms, the project builds on a range of practices from the early twentieth century (the ready-made), the conceptual discourse of the sixties and post-conceptual works and projects of the nineties. The map is the major element in the whole project. It is the actual foundation of the house where the author is currently living and is represented in the actual dimensions. The items that accompany this map are objects from the same house. The train sounds in the background are sounds that are repeatedly heard in the house's surroundings. The project is set according to predetermined instructions from the author.
