Free feeling Terra incognita The Free Feeling & Terra Incognita cartoons exhibition brings the excitement of learning about the unknown fields of both common and weird human feelings and deeds. Four authors from Iceland and Slovakia inspect the freedom of expression in society, using bitter but efficient methods. Elín Einarsdóttir reflects her personal experiences in an amusing and touching way. Hugleikur Dagsson, Bobo Pernecký and Fero Jablonovský not only analyse aesthetic brainwashing, the subconscious of sociopathic leaders, suspicious authorities and celebrities but also reflect our helplessness, often resulting in sad collaboration. The offered knowledge can be either accepted or refused by the audience, which can be considered a litmus paper of their feedback.
