Installation views from „Postindustrial campfire“ Michael Biber @biber.michael at C U AT SADKA.
We would like to sincerely thank all guests, friends, and visitors for attending the exhibition.
Post-Industrial Campfire creates a space between
perception, reception, and the transmission of signals.
Light is redirected, filtered, generated, and experienced as something no longer self-evident.
Across three rooms, painting, sculpture, and installation shift between atmosphere, action, and system - between campfire and screen, body and machine.
The exhibition explores how visibility is produced, received, and transmitted within contemporary technological environments, where perception itself becomes part of a fragile infrastructural process.

Zapraszamy na otwarcie wystawy POSTINDUSTRIAL CAMPFIRE (Postindustrialne Ognisko) Michaela Bibera @biber.michael w ramach KRAKERS XV @cracowartweek
„Łowcy, zbieracze, praktycy przyszłości”.
Wernisaż: 25.04.2026, godz. 18:00 (otwarte od godz. 14:00)
POSTINDUSTRIAL CAMPFIRE / Postindustrialne Ognisko
Instalacja tworzy przestrzeń pomiędzy archaiczną przeszłością a spekulatywną przyszłością. Odwołuje się do sposobu życia łowców-zbieraczy — w którym energia, percepcja i przetrwanie były ze sobą bezpośrednio powiązane. Praca była widzialna, fizyczna i ograniczona w czasie; nie wytwarzała nadwyżek, lecz chwilowe możliwości.
W tej przestrzeni relacja ta ulega przesunięciu. Okno — niegdyś otwarcie na świat — zostaje zamknięte. W jego miejsce pojawia się szyb świetlny zbudowany z kartonowych opakowań, który przekierowuje światło dzienne, filtrując je i skupiając w niewielkim, oświetlonym polu na podłodze. To, co zwykle pozostaje ukrytą infrastrukturą, staje się widoczne: kruche, tymczasowe i odsłonięte.
Światło nie jest już po prostu dane.
Zostaje przesunięte, zredukowane, zatrzymane.
Po zmroku musi zostać wytworzone. Widz zaczyna się poruszać, pedałować, generować. Ciało wchodzi w system, stając się źródłem własnej widzialności. Energia zamienia się bezpośrednio w światło. Jednocześnie możliwe jest ładowanie urządzeń osobistych — łącząc fizyczny wysiłek z cyfrową teraźniejszością.
W centrum pojawia się słabe pole światła w ciemności. Ma w sobie coś intymnego, jak ognisko — miejsce skupienia i wspólnej uwagi. Jednocześnie jego płaska, ograniczona powierzchnia przypomina ekran. To, co dawne i współczesne, nakłada się na siebie bez rozstrzygnięcia.
Widzenie nie jest już pasywne.
Wymaga wysiłku.
Wymaga energii.
W czasie, gdy energia krąży niewidzialnie w globalnych systemach, praca sprowadza ją z powrotem do ciała — bezpośrednio, fizycznie, niepodważalnie. Nie jako nostalgiczny powrót, lecz jako napięcie.
Postindustrialne ognisko nie daje odpowiedzi, lecz stawia pytanie:
co jeśli przyszłość nie oznacza postępu,
lecz rekonfigurację zależności?
Światło nie jest dane.
Jest wytwarzane.
Jest zdobywane.
Jest podtrzymywane.

POSTINDUSTRIAL CAMPFIRE

Opening: Saturday, April 25, 6 PM
Open from 2 PM
April 25 – May 10, 2026
Post-Industrial Campfire
The installation unfolds a space between an archaic past and a speculative future. It draws on the condition of hunter-gatherers—a mode of existence in which energy, perception, and survival were directly intertwined. Work was visible, physical, and time-bound; it did not produce surplus, but temporary possibilities.
Inside the space, this relation shifts. A window—once an opening to the world—is sealed. In its place, a light shaft built from cardboard packaging redirects daylight, filtering and concentrating it into a small illuminated field on the floor. What is usually hidden infrastructure becomes visible: fragile, provisional, and exposed.
Light is no longer simply there. It is displaced, reduced, held.
After dark, it must be produced. The visitor begins to move, to pedal, to generate. The body enters the system, becoming the source of its own visibility. Energy is transformed directly into light. At the same time, personal devices can be charged—linking physical effort to the digital present.
At the center, a faint field appears in the dark. It carries something almost intimate, like a campfire—a place of attention, of gathering. Yet its flat, bounded surface recalls a screen. The ancient and the contemporary overlap without resolving.
Seeing is no longer passive. It requires effort. It takes energy.
In a time when energy circulates invisibly through global systems, the work brings it back to the body—immediate, physical, undeniable. Not as nostalgia, but as tension.
Post-Industrial Campfire holds a question rather than an answer:
what if the future is not progress, but a reconfiguration of dependencies?
Light here is not given.
It is made.
It is taken.
It is held.
