Fight or Flight

Title „Fight or Flight” comes from the colloquially named adrenaline. The exhibition presents an analysis of this process not only from a biological perspective but also from an economic and cultural one. Installations placed within the walls of the United Climbing space, although minimalist in it’s form, are full of confrontations with extensive visions of the future of individuals such as Leszek Kołakowski or John Danaher. They were created using modern hardware: 3D milling machines, 3D printers, as well as various AI models and smartphones, embodying the characteristic hope for a better tomorrow. What else are the bodies of people playing with climbing challenges, lying on sun-warmed mats amidst the industrial halls of WSK, if not a longed-for ideal world? This is an experiment that connects different subcultures, but it does not aim to bring any results.

During the event, it will be possible to acquire access codes to the prototype of the Freef application presented during the exhibition.
