About project
The stable duo of post street-art authors presents a series of works based on the neon principle. Although neon as a medium is nothing new for both authors, both offer a premiere showing of a comprehensive series of works based on the specific qualities of this precious gas. The neon medium and specifically its qualities stand in contrast to both authors. Neon’s intensity becomes greatest in isolation. In the case of Michal Škapa and Michal Cimala it is the exact opposite. The energy of both authors is invasive, and for many also contagious. In this duo’s works, the inert, inconspicuous, precise and clearly defined element of neon becomes an expressive element designed for the public and life. Just like an oxymoron. We might even say that in Trafo Gallery, the sun will “rise in the west” and “set in the east”.
