    entering continuities - collaboration with Jasmin Schaitl | 2017 - 2018

entering continuities, initiated in January 2017, comprises collaborative, interdisciplinary projects of Jasmin Schaitl and Matěj Frank. Both artists live in different countries and travel internationally; hence, shared time is a precondition to create their duo work. Their continuous work in various media and formats captures the time spent together and turns into an archive of the common past.
