Saborna Street
exhibition by Dessislava Morozova

About Saborna Street project as a spatial event having occupied the place between the hat and the shed.

The beginning is a paper body which has to be unfolded and folded to a paper sculpture. There are drawings of umbrellas, as well as texts, describing ordinary things and happenings seen during walks with an umbrella. The book has been distributed among 800 persons with the invitation to send back their own drawings, photos, texts with which to participate in the Saborna Street exhibition.

The exhibition, which is an important part from the project, is in two parts.
The first part entitled “When does the umbrella become a line, a ‘gutter’ along which water drains away?” is an installation consisted of four linear elements organizing a concrete walking line for a viewer in the first hall. In them, under glass layers, drawings, photos and texts have been exposed – all of them sent by the receivers of the Saborna Street book.

The second part entitled “How/When do umbrellas comprise a shed?” is a bookbindery placed in the neighbouring hall. There any viewer can make his/her own book with the drawings, texts and photos sent as “answers” by the receivers of the Saborna Street book.
