Matyáš Chochola revives his Alchemist after two years. The exhibition he prepared for the London gallery Gossamer Fog at the beginning of the dark covid winter 2020. 

This year, too, we find ourselves on the threshold of a gloomy period, only for other terrifying reasons that we would not have expected in the 21st century. Thus, an art project about a powerful shaman-alchemist remains magically current. With this project, the author confirms his image as a skilled provocateur and mystifier, whose works carry ambivalent meanings.
