Jan Hladík’s works often deal with public space, its visual aspects, the interactions of people in it, and the way it is used. He usually employs existing materials that have lost their initial function.

In his diploma thesis, Hladík processes the information and visual overload in public space, which is the result of human activity. He defragments billboard information into a grid, a mixture of fragmentary information that together form an abstract, unreadable mass. The central motif of the installation is an above life-size cube referring to the occupation and blockage of space, which it usurps for itself and thus tries to win our attention.
