ICOMPATIBILIA
The sculptor Ula Gogol in
the text describes their work as a search for form that is hidden in the
material and emerges from the chaos of matter. They are inspired by biological
structures, which they find to be fascinating for their ability to transform
under the influence of external factors. The sculptor's own emotions, fears,
and experiences also play a role in their work. The sculptor sees their work to
connect the inner and outer worlds, which they often find to be in conflict.
The final form of the sculpture reflects the sculptor's own internal struggle,
intertwined with biological fascination of the life constantly changing under
the influence of the external factors.
CONSTELLATION
It’s often the case where my body simply can’t keep up. It is being
shattered into many pieces in the attempt of discovering what’s real – true to
me and my belongings. ‘Constellation is just the phase of old me’ – I keep
repeating myself like mantra, but all I have left from it is the attempt to
connect my legs together. Which shouldn’t even be connected like this at the
first place.
