EN (lietuviškas aprašymas apačioje):
These sculptural compositions are an attempt towards an intimate encounter between the artist Goda Palekaitė and a historical character, Ivan Aguéli (1869-1917). Born Johan Gustaf Agelii and later also known as Abdalhadi Aqhili, Aguéli was a Swedish artist, writer and traveller who lived a multifaceted and controversial life, periodically in France, Egypt, Ceylon (nowadays Sri Lanka) and India. He was everything from a painter, religious scholar, art theorist, linguist, writer and journalist to an anarchist, Sufi and orientalist. In his works, Aguéli tried to capture the eternal light and the essence of Islam, while in his letters, he confessed about his sentiments towards cultural fetishization. Enchanted by the contradictions in Aguéli's intentions, desires, and obsessions, and recognizing in him aspects of herself, Palekaitė wishes to grasp the mystical landscape in which the work and life of a nomad artist and writer unfolds – today as much as it has in the past.

LT:
Šios kompozicijos – tai autorės bandymas užmegzti intymų santykį su istoriniu personažu Ivanu Aguéli (1869–1917). Gimęs Johano Gustafo Agelii vardu, vėliau dar žinotas kaip Abdalhadi Aqhili, Ivanas Aguéli buvo švedų menininkas, rašytojas ir keliautojas, gyvenęs įvairialypį ir prieštaringą gyvenimą, periodiškai veikęs Prancūzijoje, Egipte, Ceilone (dabartinė Šri Lanka) ir Indijoje. Jo veiklos sričių aprėptis buvo itin plati – nuo tapybos, religijotyros, meno teorijos, lingvistikos, rašymo ir žurnaliskos iki anarchizmo, sufizmo bei orientaliskos. Savo kūriniuose Aguéli bandė užfiksuoti amžinąją šviesą ir islamo esmę, tuo pačiu laiškuose artimiesiems pripažindamas turįs polinkį į islamo kultūros fetišizavimą. Pakerėta jo ketinimų, troškimų ir manijų prieštaringumo ir atpažindama jame savo pačios bruožų, Palekaitė siekia suvokti mistinį peizažą, kuriame skleidžiasi klajoklio menininko bei rašytojo kūryba ir gyvenimas – tiek praeityje, tiek ir šiandien.
