Visitors will have an opportunity to see the exhibition of artist Jana Danilović at the Inner Stambol Gate of the Belgrade Fortress Gallery, every day except Mondays and Tuesdays, for one month, starting from 12 August. The working hours of the Gallery are from 11 am to 7 pm, and the entrance is free.

Within the concept entitled “Boundless”, the exhibition includes a series of works based on a combination of watercolours, drawings and stencils (techniques typical of street art and contemporary murals), simultaneously exploring and re-examining the nature of the relationship between these different, seemingly irreconcilable techniques and the very nature of the idea of boundaries. Boundaries, as a product of the social agreement, in addition to limiting territories, confine less tangible “domains” of human activity – boundaries are seen as barriers. This series of works on paper does not consciously and intentionally treat the concept of boundaries as a barrier, but instead abstracts, destroys and transforms it into a “seam”, a point of fusion. By bringing very subtle techniques into a harmonious correlation with robust ones – watercolours with spray-paint (car-varnish) and by producing organic, free forms by making sharp perforations, side by side with the generically repeated forms, a context is built, a “scenography” for the narrative layer of the series. The use of a bird (swallow), the only non-abstract element whose symbolic value is also the key to reading the narrative, illustrates, through this contextualized symbol, the natural need to remove restrictions.
