With support from ArtPower Belarus, Belarusian artist Aliaksandr Adamau presented hyperMOTHER at the Museum of Free Belarus in Warsaw from 18 to 20 September 2026. The exhibition was included in WGW+, the Warsaw Gallery Weekend programme.
The project investigates mechanisms of control and “soft power” through the image of a sanatorium — a space where care, comfort and protection gradually become tools for restricting personal freedom and autonomy. Conceived as an immersive, all-encompassing installation, the exhibition invited visitors not merely to observe these mechanisms but to experience them bodily.
Participation in Warsaw Gallery Weekend introduced contemporary Belarusian art to Polish and international audiences, increased its visibility and situated it within a wider European context of contemporary artistic practice.
The project also included the creation of hypermother.com, a website featuring exhibition documentation and additional materials. The digital platform preserves the project beyond the physical exhibition and makes it accessible to audiences unable to visit in Warsaw.
