As we are descending to a basement, we transition intoa space where we usually keep locked away historicaldocuments, objects no longer in use, and items full ofmemories. There is a more introspective viewpoint in theallegorical message, which consists of encounters withthe paradoxes, the fears, and the undesirable scenarios.The ‘Kato’ exhibition is attempting a modular narrative ofthese associations by transitioning from literal interpretationsto metaphorical references.The basement is considered a place of accumulating andsafekeeping. The lifeless masses of tangible or digitalinformation, which are standing there either on piles, onenext to the other, or squeezed, are shaping an intact archive ofhuman life. In other cases, they coexist with living entities,which are both waiting to be activated. Suspicions of lightentering the room and non-existent escape routes setthe boundaries for an observatory, where witnesses thatgo unnoticed are hosted, watching moments go by. Thisindiscreet act and the simultaneous acknowledgment ofthe burden that paradoxes carry with them is exactly whatsignals the passage to the psychological basement. Theinner noise is characterized by an explosive stillness thatresembles ‘sleep paralysis’, capable of saving us fromtraumatic falls or leading us to a permanent inaction. Thefeeling of anxiety that comes along with the confinementtakes on a greater extent of collective confusion, whichin turn forces them towards dystopias. Οn the verge ofanticipation and fear, all this inaction becomes a habit.This connotation is neither unique nor linear. Multiplesequences of narratives can be created when dealing withthe files, left downstairs in the basement.
