The Silence of Places presents Michal Škoda's new collection of pencil drawings which deal with man's relationship to a particular place and space. The drawings will be exhibited in the Kvalitář Gallery along with a selection of the artist’s own books from the last three years, uncovering his reasoning behind the works being currently exhibited. 

Above all, Škoda’s work is concerned with the perception of space, human perspective, relationships and a series of questions related to human existence within the framework of the everyday. He primarily takes note of places influenced by humans, whether it be a work of architecture or an inconspicuous environmental element in the landscape. Through the long-term mapping of these "silent places" and subjective transfer of a three-dimensional space onto paper, the artist reduces reality to the form of black and white geometric fragments. 

The current exhibition presents a series of previously unexhibited drawings in the Kvalitář Gallery in Prague. These works are in turn supplemented with several of the artist’s own books.

This is Michal Škoda’s second solo exhibition in the Kvalitář Gallery. 
Škoda is one of the artists the Kvalitář Gallery has worked with on a long-term basis.
