Scrabble Project

  • OK, it's a bit complicated. TheScrabble project reflects the information mosaic we use to create our image of reality. It is meant to encourage viewers to reflect on their knowledge about the world, usually constructed on the basis of unified information supplied by large mediaconcerns through mainstream media.It is also an invitation to independent explorations and verification of information on the most important aspects of our reality, such as GMOs, global health policies, the nature and causes of financial crises, corporate social responsibility, global warming, conspiracy theories, etc. The project is dedicated to eight topical documentaries available on YouTube.

    The Scrabble project is also a peculiar kind of graffiti.

    First, I made 24 forms, then around 400 scrabble letters, employing the traditional ceramic process:
  • Then, the letters was mounted (glued) onto walls at 8 selected points throughout the city of Krakow / Poland. Each installation is dedicated to a different documentary movie and the criss-crossing words are a reference to their content.
  • At the end, a series of posters illustrating the films referred to the installations will serve as a summary of the project. They will complete the installations, being the only element pointing to a particular film they allude to.

    The Scrabble project was made for ArtBoom Festival Kraków (link here).

    The project is dedicated to all docu filmmakers. Special thanks to Naomi Klein.
