Summary:Meggy Rustamova's (b. 1985, Tbilisi) practice explores films and spatial installations, in which she incorporates photographs, essays and audio material; often the work has a performative character. Concerned with the relations between individual and collective memory, language and human behaviour, her works look for ways to translate the current matters and phenomena in the world. The title of the book and the exhibition, HORAIZON, refers to the phonetic pronunciation of the English word 'horizon', the boundary line on which the earth's surface and the sky seem to touch. The horizon, interpreted as 'boundary' or 'line', is equally perceptible in language, when reading between the lines, or when travelling between international borders. The contours of the land, trees or buildings, which contrast with the sky, but also the contours of shadows can be observed in many of the images in the exhibition. The works also suggest a longing for what lies behind the horizon and invite the viewer to make an imaginary journey. Exhibition: S.M.A.K., Ghent, Belgium (19.09.2020.-17.01.2021).
