Brief description |
ZMIANY presents the work of an emerging generation of artists and designers from the Faculty of Multimedia Communications at Tomas Bata University in Zlín. The project was conceived as a shared reflection on transformation—not as a one-off theme, but as a condition in which design naturally finds itself today. ZMIANY focuses on process, movement, and openness rather than on definitive forms and fixed meanings.
The curatorial concept is based on the belief that contemporary design unfolds in constant tension between the physical and digital worlds. Digital tools, virtual environments, and augmented reality are not merely instruments here, but active co-creators of the resulting works. The exhibition traces transformation on three interconnected levels: methodological, material, and conceptual. It shows how working methods, relationships to material, and the very understanding of design’s role are changing.
The presented works oscillate between fascination with technological development and its critical reflection. The authors engage with questions of responsibility, sustainability, and the ethical boundaries of innovation. Here, design does not appear as a service or decoration, but as a tool for thinking and a means of articulating positions toward the contemporary world.
ZMIANY does not view change as a problem to be solved, but as a condition to be worked with. The exhibition opens space for dialogue between technology and craft, between experimentation and experience, between the present and possible scenarios of the future.
