The Spectre in the Wedge
2026

6. 5. – 26. 7. / Kostka Gallery / Meetfactory / Prague / CZ

Curators: Tereza Havelková and Kateřina Pencová / Production: Nikol Hoangová / Graphic Designer: Jakub Kučera / Photos: Jan Kolský / Installation: Ondřej Konrád, Tereza Kontúrová, Lukáš Procházka, Prokop Václavík, Kateřina Vachová, Šimon Vlach, Jakub Záliš, Antonín Závodný / The exhibition was developed during the residency of Borsos Lőrinc within the Deconstructing Myths project, supported by the International Visegrad Fund.


Within a space of unsettled freedoms and competing parties, movements, and cults, a speculative infrastructure has long been operating in secrecy: OKKULTEK - a fictional agency dedicated to the research of paranormal and parapsychological phenomena. Functioning at the intersection of occultism and technology, it is now opening to new agents.

The exhibition sustains a moment of possession. It stages once again the manifestation of an entity codenamed MIKE, which escaped from the Cosmic Girl music video and has settled between the symbols of the car and uranium. A space unfolds where the illusion of speed and the myth of control merge with messages from other dimensions. The wedge form defies the functionality of the vehicle, transforming it into a symbol of desire. The piercing eyes of Ferat warn car lovers, even as they lure them toward a perilous spin. The summoning may last only an instant. An entity from other spheres arrives. She is cosmic.
