The project is based on a series of video works 'Love Diary' — a multi-layered reflection on the meaning and fragility of love in the era of the Internet. The artist refers to the corporeal image of the beating heart, which pumps digital blood from our electronic traces: love correspondence in messengers, notes, screenshots of texts.
'The category of tomorrow as a category of the future means the inherent constant anticipation of love,' says Masters Digital curator Anna Zavedy. — 'Tomorrow always comes. It's a moment of abstract 'not now' that's about to happen. Love Tomorrow is a formula for hope of salvation, transformation and new meaning.'
The exhibition also includes an NFT work of the same name, created specifically for a collaborative project between Anna Nova Gallery and digital art platform Masters Digital. With this work, the artist continues her signature exploration of corporeality, juxtaposing natural and anthropomorphic body parts. By addressing contradictory images, traces and imprints, sensations and affects, Maria Agureeva's works assert the metaphorical potential of the chimerical materiality of the future.
You can visit the exhibition from December 27 to January 20.
Address: St. Petersburg, Barochnaya str. 6, building 1 (entrance from Bolshaya Zelenina str).
The admission is free.
The project is supported by the Art & Science Center of ITMO University.
