Performance Not Anymore

Technical Specifications: Piotr Kolanko Not Anymore Performance, video, object Duration: 20 minutes Not Anymore is part of a series of projects aimed at integrating the self and confronting the traumas of growing up with ADHD, high sensitivity, a sense of otherness, and social misfit. In his work, the artist often explores themes of exclusion, rejection, the loss of safety and comfort, and prolonged exposure to high levels of stress.

The sparse, minimalist aesthetic of the imagery allows for a focus on the content while simultaneously transporting us into the world of observation seen through the author’s eyes. The images directly correspond with the text, often created during or immediately after writing the narrative. Kolanko employs contemporary aesthetics of films and reels to create works that are decidedly not them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qj90hAtK27U
