Exhibition Catalogue Magic Carpets Landed Kaunas 05.11.2021–23.01.2022.How many shapes can an idea take? How many sounds can a city transmit? What tastes do memories have? How much does a feeling weigh? How many stories can arise out of each of these questions? With their works, the artists of Magic Carpets gave life to hundreds of these stories, using languages that were both their own and universal, and saving them from oblivion. The stories travelled and intertwined, overcoming physical and cultural boundaries. And if, as Sherazade claimed, any story that begins has no end, these tales are like living beings, constantly evolving, feeding off the voices that tell them and giving rise to a new collective memory.
