In ‘How not to be seen' (2018), Vsevolod Kovalevskij investigates the contemporary language of visibility and the act of the gaze by juxtaposing the 18th Century rustic landscape tradition with the 21st Century concept of the suspension of disbelief and the relationships between different plains of existence: The Virtual, The Real and The Speculated.
Vsevolod Kovalevskij's practice is based on critical thought and humour by which he is rethinking the ever changing human condition, his works are driven by research into collective and individual memory and memories, anthropological studies and empathy, from which he creates tools to question the conditions of ones surrounding. This results in process-based installations, video works and objects that establish a relationship between the active spectator, the artist and members of the broader community.
