Small but dangers is a purposefully miswritten paraphrase of the expression, “Small, but dangerous”, which became the throughline, recognisable slogan and name under which the artistic duo of Mateja Rojc and Simon Hudolin operate. Since their first exhibitions in Slovenia in 2004, the well-established artist duo have been presenting various visual jabs that test the folds of our grey matter and above all, our capacity to observe, to read and to seek the unknown in the known. We can label the duo as neo-conceptualists, as well as painters, printmakers or makers of ready-mades with an ironic and analytical approach to the material fragments surrounding us. The exhibition entitled Natura morta is their largest to date and marks 21 years of their work together. It is full of small things, old and new works, presented to the public for the first time and arranged in such a way as to foster new interrelationships and meanings. With the exhibition, SBD confirm that exhibiting is still only one of the media in which they are active and in which their system of signs can transform into a comprehensive metalanguage about art itself.
Opening: at the International Centre of Graphic Arts in Ljubljana on Friday, 21 November 2025, at 6 pm.
