Apparently Small Significance of Puddles

Art Walk Gallery Warsaw | 2023

In their exhibition Apparently Small Significance of Puddles at the Art Walk, visual artists, Magdalena Lazar and Piotr Urbaniec, showcase results of their year-long art research focusing on the titular, ephemeral, urban water reservoirs. Employing various artistic and scientific methods in their study of the “street holes” and water anomalies, they invent a quasi-science to gather all proofs and clues concerning the life of puddles. Their exhibition combines poetry, humour and the absurd with a serious study of hydro-ecological issues and the life of non-human beings in urban space. Aesthetically, the exhibition coincides with the futurist landscape of the Wola district of Warsaw and space-like, metal capsules, reminiscent of the history of cosmonautics in the 20th century. Individual exhibits guide visitors through experiments conducted by artist-researchers, creating popular science information boards. The exhibition is accompanied by a text introducing the fictional science of puddlelogy and challenges facing its representatives—puddlelogists.
