Kateřina Zochová is an artist whose output straddles the borderline between the media of photography and animated film. She is also active as a musician, playing harp, and also “performing” on computer as a member of several formations including the bands Audiofenky, and Over Ocean. Her work draws inspiration from dreams and literary texts, most notably poetry, and newly likewise the writings of Roland Barthes, such as L’Empire des signes.
The exhibition called Reverberation by Kateřina Zochová is a part of the fifth edition of the project Start up. The format of the series of exhibition grouped under the collective title Start up is a contribution rendered by Prague City Gallery towards the process of charting the creative output of the youngest generation active on czech art scene.
The fifth edition of the project Start up will introduce works by five up-and-coming young artists, along with information about the studios where they have studied. The individual shows will be accompanied by a number of supplementary programmes supervised by the participating artists and/or their teachers, a video shown at the exhibition, and a 16-page magazine FILES in the limited edition of 200 pieces.
