Dark Side of The Moon 2
Cairo Contemporary, Budapest
1071 Budapest, Lövölde tér 7.2024, September 8-28
On view: 0-24hDark Side of The Moon may have a soul, though not sure.
Perhaps some, not none; after all, they are themselves a somebody, or at least something.
Perhaps there are reasons for their behaviour.
Perhaps we will find out one day.
Until then, what else can we do, we wait.
The Dark Side of The Moon is based on a simple principle: it denies the viewer the bare minimum of what is reasonable. The minimum that we unknowingly await, expect, but it just does not come. And it does not come. And it does not come.
Dark Side of The Moon is this denial in the flesh. An installation that is not interested in the viewer. An exhibited object that says no. A rude freak. A cold presence. A lonely planet.
Nóra Juhász (Budapest, 1993) is a contemporary interdisciplinary artist and theatre-maker. In their cross-media projects, they explore communication, information sharing and the relationship between the individual and society. Their theatre and visual art projects are both socially contextualised, conceptual and playfully ironic. In recent years, role-playing and the use of virtual tools have become a dominant element of their practice. In 2024, they were granted the Stiftung Berliner Leben „Fresh A.I.R.” residency programme and were awarded the Gyula Derkovits Visual Art Scholarship.
