EXHIBITION: ʼGoing Nowhere Slowʼ / ʼDuke Shkuar Askund Ngadalëʼ

“Going Nowhere Slow”, both a title and a provocation, borrowed from Mikkel Krause Frantzen’s book, which examines the experience of depression and the ways in which it is shaped by our contemporary condition.
Lori Lako’s exhibition at Bazament Gallery, emerges as an intervention into the discourse on labor, the human body, and temporal dynamics in the era of late capitalism. Lako’s critique on the neoliberal system finds resonance in Albania’s post-communist transformation and ongoing struggle while addressing the global economic and political instability.
Though photographs, performance, installation and video, she sketches the tension between aesthetics and societal constraints.
