THIS DREAM WASN'T MINE
After a successful summer collaboration in 2023, when White & Weiss Gallery presented an exhibition of three Ukrainian students from the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava (AFAD), the gallery continues its initiative to support young creation. The exhibition This Dream Wasn’t Mine was created in cooperation with the 3EAM studio (Third Expanded Painting Studio) of the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava and presents a selection of works by 21 students from this studio, under the curatorial guidance of Paulína Gajerová.
The featured works oscillate between the intimate and the social, between analytical and intuitive approaches. They reflect themes such as the body, identity, sexuality, subcultures, personal myths, fear of the unknown, or fascination with technology and the chaos of the contemporary world. The gallery space brings together fictional landscapes, spaces of memory, and visions of the future.
Each author brings their own microcosm – autonomous and specific. Only in the shared exhibition space do these worlds begin to overlap, complement, disrupt, or mirror each other. This creates a new type of map: a map without a legend, in which themes and meanings shift, overlap, and layer again. The exhibition thus offers an image of the world as a stream of fragments, where, despite the apparent chaos, we can find unexpected, quiet connections.
