Szablon!!! Szablon!!! Szablon!!!The sculptures watch the world and track human footprints. The raven, pig and rat have a broader view, seeing the earth from a bird’s eye view, from the surface of the ground and from nooks and crannies hidden in the depths. Culturally defined as sinister and unclean, the animals exude an inner calm and aloof wisdom. Ida chose three animals to represent the natural world. The idea for the sculpture of the three animals observing the self-destruction of civilisation from above came while climbing a high mountain, in one of those places where man loses to nature in a wrestling match of grandeur and omnipotence.

Szablon!!! Szablon!!! Szablon!!! The animals look statuesque, but Ida sculpted them from lightweight acrylic resin so that they could be placed on the roofs of buildings, waste heaps or in the bed of a dried-up river. The animal sculptures were part of a year-long project at the crossroads of social campaigning and visual arts. Together with a group of photographers, Ida wandered through places marked by destructive human activity and counted down time, suggesting that there is not much time to waste. The photographs used the interchangeable languages of documentation, reportage, intervention and impression. Their common denominator was human degeneration, which the animals watched in silence, apocalyptic degradation, irresponsible abuse of the achievements of civilisation and mindless destruction of the planet, which may eventually lead to the collective suicide of the species called rational man. In galleries, museums and art exhibitions we watch and comment, but this time it is the sculptures that observe and judge. Once again, Ida reverses roles, one of her means used to revive feeling and thinking in a world suffering from a crisis of empathy and imagination.
