The roof of the Telegraph became for a few days a refuge for sculptures by the Ostrava sculptor Šimon Szabo, a graduate of the studio of the Department of Sculpture at the Faculty of Arts of the University of Ostrava. Szabo's work deals with the disruption of the integrity of closed systems. For this purpose, he uses the technique of visual homonyms, i.e. connecting objects of related appearance but different meaning or function. He systematically deals with the theme of hybridization and mixing of organic forms with artificially developed forms. He uses not only the medium of sculpture, but also the object, installation and intervention in public space. His main themes include anatomy, sexuality, love and the universe.
