Kairo by Anna Jožová is a poetic exploration of loss and memory, capturing the essence of a vanished civilization through evocative, ovoid forms. These “petrified fossils” symbolize unidentifiable artifacts, remnants of a culture erased by a sudden environmental collapse.
The artist deliberately simplified the shapes, distilling them into time-worn pebbles, stripped of specific identity to reflect their erosion by time and history. Intricately “fossilized” textures adorn the surfaces, preserving faint traces of an obscure, long-lost epoch—fragments of a narrative left open to interpretation.
Kairo invites viewers to contemplate the fragility of civilizations, the permanence of nature’s imprint, and the fleeting essence of human existence. It stands as a poignant reminder of our connection to the past and the impact of environmental loss.
