Mirko Zrinsh Alakak (1953) placed nine monumental wooden sculptures in dialogue with the space of the former monastery church, pronounced verticals of subtle effects, seemingly floating in space in the correct lighting. In terms of content, it is a continuation of the exploration of the sculptural form, which the author began in 2008 with the ambient installation of the exhibition forms of space in the Art Pavilion in Zagreb. Even in kostanjevica's former monastery church, the artist insists on finding the ideal form, which, according to him, is a sublimation of all the forms of his personal archipelago. The search must be understood as the author's intimate meditation and search, which is not a method in him, but directly derived from his sculptured way of life. This is precisely why Zrinsh Alakak's sculptures are perceived in the field of the sublime as an experience-based artistic statement. For any insight, the viewer needs deep attention, a kind of haptic state, when an instinctive desire for tactility arises, when in silence we listen to the vibrations that we eventually feel somewhere in our stomach, when we hear from far back here now.
Mirko Zrinšćak (1953) je v dialog s prostorom nekdanje samostanske cerkve umestil devet monumentalnih lesenih skulptur, izrazitih vertikal subtilnih učinkov, ki v pravilni osvetlitvi navidezno lebdijo v prostoru. Vsebinsko gre za nadaljevanje raziskovanja kiparske forme, ki ga je avtor začel leta 2008 z ambientalno postavitvijo razstave Oblike prostora v Umetniškem paviljonu v Zagrebu. Umetnik tudi v kostanjeviški nekdanji samostanski cerkvi vztraja v iskanju idealne forme, ki je po njegovih besedah sublimacija vseh form njegovega osebnega arhipelaga. Iskanje moramo razumeti kot avtorjevo intimno meditacijo in iskanje, kar pri njem ni metoda, temveč neposredno izhaja iz njegovega kiparstvu posvečenega načina življenja. Ravno zato tudi Zrinšćakove skulpture dojemamo v polju vzvišenega kot na izkušnji temelječo umetniško izjavo. Za vsakršen uvid je pri gledalcu potrebna poglobljena pozornost, nekakšno haptično stanje, ko vznikne instinktivna želja po taktilnosti, ko v tišini prisluhnemo vibracijam, ki jih na koncu začutimo nekje v trebuhu, ko od daleč nazaj slišimo tukaj zdaj.
