J\u0119drzej Bie\u0144ko presents his diploma project. This is a site-specific painting exhibition, following a tradition of spatial and immersive projects in which the picture is not just an object, it is an experience of space. Can an image become the whole horizon? Can it take our gaze and draw us into itself, until we lose our bearings?<\/p>\n

Bie\u0144ko creates a hazy landscape woven from faces\u2014while seemingly diffuse, they are omnipresent. This picture, which occupies all the walls of the gallery, will not let us remain on the outside; it magnetizes the gaze, but gives it no support. Its chief element is disquiet\u2014the viewer feels observed. This is a space woven from presence, which, more evokes than depicts a sense of suspension, of disorientation, of being \u201cin the middle\u201d of something.<\/p>\n

The picture becomes an event horizon\u2014a border that, when crossed, does not mean anything returns to the wat it was. Just as in physics, where the event horizon fences us off from information within a black hole, here too the limits of the picture separate us from total knowledge. This is a landscape that sucks us in, and yet will not be transcended.<\/p>\n
