Abstract

 Art and engaging in inclusive art is the starting point for articulating "our" personal emptiness, because we live in a time of individualism, existentialism and capitalism. We see our own inner existential emptiness in space as the biggest social problem of all individual's existential emptiness. The individual in modern society has an existential void which is being filled by art. The event as a central theme, shown through two levels. The first level of events is to be like me, as it was created on the level of the body and it makes sense to change from both discourses in order to enchant with a world that has been fundamentally changed and which makes a kind of event. The second level is the inclusive level (I put the subject in the intellectual role of an inclusive being), an event that eludes us all the time. The event is the center. An event that has been displaced from physical space and is located in two other places at the same time. It takes place in the virtual world as the starting point of its creation (vectors and pixels) and in the inner world of actors and audiences as the bearer and receiver of events. We are influenced by the change of discourse from one system of meaning to another. The changes of dominant values, that occur in the 21st century, are being widely accepted under the influence of networking and technology. I came to the conclusion that, as an artist, I created an event with all my previous experience of the world and art, and under the influence, a mixture of media production. Observers, as the ultimate bearers of the event, are confronted with an artifact that is a product of the dispositive. This paper is a kind of critique of global networking and current events. Are we always trying to see what is happening? Events are more complex than what they present to us. In this work, I am creating a kind of a shelter, a "house of pixels", as a display of an inclusive type of cultural spectacle. We (civilization) have kept a man alive in swimming, that actively creates electricity, which is now moving opposite to the starting point, but he is still floating on that water. When we identify the word culture with nature here, we come to the conclusion that there is a discontinuity between us and the environment, between us (subjects) and living nature. Instead of the word nature, today we use the words: network, internet, new technologies, platforms, 3D print. By creating a kind of enclave, we try to save ourselves from the current event, which we can interpret only by observing and actively participating in it, and thus helping others see the picture of the world through their own interpretations of the actualization of events
