Instalaciju čini kompozicija odbačenih okvira vrata iz različitih stambenih prostora. Jednostavna, ali jaka simbolika zvuka „zalupljenih vrata“ što je u različitim tonalitetima i intenzitetima repetitivno aktiviraju posjetitelji/ce svojim kretanjem, evociraju emocije i doživljaje, asocirajući, osim toga, vidljive i nevidljive barijere kojima smo okruženi ili ih sami gradimo. Zvuk zalupljenih vrata sadrži jaki emotivan naboj – strast, ljutnja, bijes, odustajanje, pozornost, strah, osjećaj kraja i početka… Instalacija otvara prostor za igru ulazaka - izlazaka, koreografija kretanja posjetitelja bilježi nevidljivu arhitekturu koja se tu pojavljuje. Simbolika vrata sadržana u ovom radu upućuje na prolaz, odnosno prijelaz preko “praga” koji može označavati samo fizičko pomicanje iz jednog prostora u drugi, ili transformaciju, prijelaz iz jedne zone u drugu.Tu je prisutna i memorija koju nose sami štokovi, upisani tragovi postojanja, prolaznosti, egzistencije i asocijacija na tuđe živote…

The installation is a composition of discarded door frames from various residential spaces. The simple yet powerful symbolism of the sound of “slamming doors“, which is repetitively activated by visitors in different tones and intensities through their movement, evokes emotions and experiences, alluding to both visible and invisible barriers that surround us or that we build ourselves. The sound of slamming doors carries a strong emotional charge – passion, anger, rage, giving up, attention, fear, a sense of ending and beginning... The installation opens up a space for the game of entering and exiting, and the choreography of visitors' movements records the invisible architecture that appears there. The symbolism of the door contained in this work refers to passage, or transition across the “threshold“ which can signify only physical movement from one space to another, or transformation, a transition from one zone to another. There is also the memory carried by the doorposts themselves, inscribed traces of existence, transience, existence, and associations with other lives...
