Artwork location: Bulgaria
The exhibition “Wired / Weird" presents a series of paintings that explore connectivity as a social phenomenon through a phenomenological lens, spanning a wide range and amplitude. Structural social connectivity, whose functional relationship between biological and social levels is largely proportional, has emerged as a dominant factor in social life on a planetary scale over the past year and a half, particularly manifested through the virulence of a single virus.
The focus of the artistic inquiry in “Wired / Weird" is connectivity as a given, and weirdness as a consequence of the marginal states of that very connectivity or its transgressive conditions. These states are defined against the subordinating tendency of any categorization.
The artworks in this exhibition can be viewed as “anatomical" illustrations or “dissections" of social phenomena. They convey a minimalist choreography of narrative and languid duration, devoid of extension, serving an analytical process that generates distinctive “relics." Or perhaps, these are relics weakened by the classification of species, with decoded genomes arranged on shelves and drawers, aestheticized records and documents.
This process is nourished by ideas that seep through the thinning fabric of the neoliberal social system, permeated by the scent of a decaying anthropocentric model intertwined with an all-pervasive, semiconductor-grown “reason" devoid of primitive emotions. There is no apocalypse—only entropy.
The objects in the exhibition should be seen as art that does not merely concern itself, but rather feeds its own self-irony. Art that overflows the comfortable boundary of its axiom, indifferent to formal efforts directed by the shallow plate of social existence. Art that gazes at nature not to reproduce it, but to acquire material dimensions—a form of interaction that marks an exchange of information, a peculiar interface.
A deeper gaze at the works presented in “Wired / Weird" reveals their resistance to formal aestheticization. They function as a medium that maintains communication with the viewer within a distinct contextual layer of authenticity, without disrupting the conventional structures of perception. This is precisely how Maglov's works operate: by conforming to established classical aesthetic frameworks, they simultaneously convey a critical message that challenges these very norms. Through the sophisticated language of idealization and aesthetic refinement, Maglov's works expose the mechanisms of conservative categorization and oppression that arise from the pursuit of perfection. By presenting the uncanny within a meticulously constructed aesthetic framework, they subvert the viewer's expectations and question the validity of aesthetic norms as tools of exclusion and marginalization.

Presentation
Radoslav Maglov, born in 1978, is a Bulgarian artist who lives and works in Sofia.
His work delves into the potential overflow of essences from object to subject and vice versa, as well as the capacity to assign moral categories to subjective sensations. In Maglov's artistic endeavors, the bodily experience serves both as a medium and an outcome, inseparably intertwined with every aesthetic encounter. Through his interdisciplinary and experimental approach, Maglov aims to challenge conventional notions of the body and its relationship to ethical categories and social prejudices. Maglov's work invites the audience to reflect on the transformative nature of the body, presenting it as a mental resource that can be consumed in a transgressive form of expression.
He employs a variety of media, including video, installations, sculptures, and paintings, to convey his message.
