Exposition of Aga Ousseinov “The Kite and the Impossible Globe” will be presented on the ground floor of Park Bulvar. Outline of the project by Aga Ousseinov for the Public Art Project in Baku.
Despite its visual appeal, the artist explores conceptual boundaries between Vertical and Horizontal intentions. It’s a sort of a confrontation between the ascension, levitation, and aeronautics on one side and earthliness and graceless but simultaneously fragile planetary dynamics on the other. To some degree this edge is close to some kind of energy originating from disruption of the sky and the earth.
The first intention is symbolized by the kite while the second one – by a globe framed with an underground map on it. Placed nearby the escalator, this piece can have a peculiar psychological impact on the people descending the escalator, while observing the sculpture of an ascending kite that brings a sense of a slight disruption to our perception.
