Plato's dessert
Description
Plato's Dessert Boronski's art video, "Plato's Dessert," delicately manoeuvres through the precarious dance between our formulated realities and the shadows cast by media and advertising, enveloping us in a 3.45-minute reflection upon the extent of our authentic experiences versus media-imposed narratives. Employing, among others, stop-motion and paper-cutting techniques, Boronski parallels Plato's cave dwellers with modern society, exchanging primal shadows with the gleaming allure of a TV screen, promising paradises crafted from ice cream dreams and faux serenity. But as the inhabitants chase these promises, they are only met with the stark contrast of disillusionment, eventually retreating to their initial confines. Boronski gracefully intertwines this narrative with an implicit commentary on our susceptibility to being "framed" or, starkly, brainwashed by media and advertisements.Try it!
