Betweenness

Method

“Understand the space between breaths — there lies the whole world.”
— Jalaluddin Rumi

Art often strives to express what slips beyond ordinary perception and language. The Betweenness method is an artistic approach exploring the “in-between” — transitional, liminal states where “before” and “after,” “was” and “will be” merge into a singular point.

The Betweenness method focuses on experiencing and expressing intermediate states of being — those elusive moments that cannot be fully captured or understood by traditional means. These are spaces between sleep and wakefulness, thought and word, life and death.

Within these states, something essential and profound occurs — essence and revelation that slip away the moment we try to grasp them. Transitions are accompanied by amnesia — forgetting that impedes access to “between worlds” experiences.

Core Principles of the Method
Immersion into the “between” state — creating artistic spaces or situations where conventional boundaries of time and perception dissolve.

Expressing the inexpressible — using sound, light, space, performance, and media to convey subtle, ephemeral experiences.

Provoking empathy — encouraging the viewer to undergo the “in-between worlds” experience, potentially evoking memory or profound sensations.

Working with memory and amnesia — acknowledging that liminal states come with forgetting, and art’s task is to bring viewers closer to these experiences.

Exploring time and space — engaging with relations of “before” and “after,” “life” and “death,” “sleep” and “wakefulness,” where these opposites merge.

The Betweenness method offers a unique way to explore the depths of human experience connected to transitions and liminal states.
It is an invitation to touch the ineffable moments where the entire world resides — in the silent spaces between breaths.

Revealed Realism

Method, Revealed Realism

“The real must be fictionalized in order to be thought.” Jacques Rancière

Revealed Realism (RR) is a unique method of perception and artistic action aimed at uncovering hidden layers of meaning within real objects, landscapes, and structures. It is based on the belief that even the most ordinary or forgotten fragments of the world contain a sense of “unfinishedness.”

This approach does not turn to fiction or external effects; instead, it relies on attentive observation and minimal intervention to reveal what already exists but is not immediately visible.

At its core, the method works with a sense of “unfinishedness” or absence — fragments of a hologram hinting at a larger, intangible whole. The artist and researcher collect these fragments, revealing and complementing them through minimal, respectful interventions that activate the object’s inner resonance without altering its essence.

Key Aspects of Revealed Realism: Immersive and patient attention to the object or environment: perceiving beyond the obvious.

Supplemented intervention: subtle artistic actions — such as temporary installations, sound additions, performative gestures, or poetic texts — that reveal hidden dimensions.

Phenomenological approach: emphasizes bodily and sensory engagement, recognizing multiple layers of reality including emotional and historical aspects.

Interdisciplinary inspiration: draws on phenomenology, speculative realism, archaeology of everyday life, tactile aesthetics, and evidentiary art.

Revealed Realism is more than an artistic technique; it is a way of being with the world. By revealing the invisible within the visible, it expands our understanding of reality, offering a richer, more nuanced experience that bridges art, philosophy, and lived experience — inviting a deeper connection to the world around us.

Design of Remembrance Method

Method

Design of Remembrance is an original artistic method focused on the meaningful and tangible preservation of personal experiences. It brings together the emotional traces of journeys and events with visual and tactile forms such as travel journals, postcards, sketches, collages, and object compositions.

The method is rooted in the natural human impulse to keep memories through small “artifacts” — notes, tickets, wrappers, photos, sketches, receipts. These items are often stored chaotically or lose their meaning over time. The goal of the Design of Remembrance is to transform this visual and emotional clutter into a coherent story.

The method includes:

  • Mnemonic keys — personal visual or textual markers that trigger memories;
  • Sketching and hand-drawing techniques;
  • Design tools for creating unique travel books and postcards;
  • Structuring of visual and textual material (composition, combinations, points of focus).

This method is not only about preserving the past — it also fosters mindfulness in the present, helps to recognize the meaningful in the everyday, and develops the ability to tell personal stories through images.

It can be used in artistic practice, travel, art therapy, education, and personal creative projects.

We have conducted a workshop dedicated to the practical application of this method, guiding participants through the techniques of Design of Remembrance to create their own meaningful travel stories and handcrafted keepsakes.
