The work, which, according to the artist's conception, belongs to a body of drawings, evokes a diary record and appeals to today's mind-set with a statement. To the cult of superficiality, speed and environmental blindness. Although it is technically an object/assemblage, it is usually created quickly, explosively and spontaneously as a sketch from thoughts, quotes and phrases collected the day before. The drawings are a kind of series of individual exclamations of the modern world ironizing the social environment and contemporary events. Krištof Kintera - one of the most prominent contemporary Czech artists - works in various media - the moment of movement, interaction and socially critical overlap is a reflection of the interconnection of fine art, performance and theatre scenography. His moving works have gained great popularity among prestigious institutions abroad.
