GOLD COLLECTION
Screen work / part of a multimedia installation, 2026
«The Golden Collection» is a screen-based work built around a fictional television series set in the art world, created using generative systems.
The set, actors, and crew of this series never actually existed. However, outside of the on-screen narrative, photographs, scripts, production documents, and artifacts are generated, giving the impression of its real history.
The project investigates how an event that never happened acquires presence, material evidence, and its own memory.
At the heart of the project is a television series about the art world, created using generative systems. It has characters, storylines, and its own screen universe, yet there has never been a physical set, actors, a production crew, or shooting days.
Despite this, the series is gradually acquiring the hallmarks of actual production. Group photos of the cast emerge, unofficial behind-the-scenes shots are taken, working scripts are generated, editing logs are compiled, a printed TV program is created, and production documents and character-related props appear.
All these artifacts pertain to an event that never actually occurred.
