In "Future Days" Agnieszka Polska (* 1985) describes a "heaven for artists". Her vision of the future shows a room, in a seemingly fantastic, symbolic landscape, in which artists from different generations meet after death. Caught in eternity, the group of artists wander through the landscape in search of origin and meaning. This spherical world seems emptied of all other attributes, not including anything more than memories. In both grotesque, as well as melancholic situations, the mutual influences of the past and future are presented. The discussion of the human desire for metaphysical and the pursuit of the sublime and knowledge accompanies the encounters.
