The Symbiosity of Creation (2012 – ca. 2034) by Jarosław Czarnecki (aka Elvin Flamingo) is an interdisciplinary art and research project which consists of six mobile incubators, whose interiors recreate the natural habitat of three species of ants. The project consists of three part-stories: “The Reconstruction of Non-human Culture”, “The Kingdom of the Shared Quotidian”, and “After Humans. The Biocorporation”, plus the recordings of failed attempts to create the colony collected in the form of “Subterranean Struggle”. As a result of the materials used (in vivo organism) Czarnecki’s work may seem to be a typical bio-art piece. In my text I would like to point out one very important, yet so far overlooked, critical aspect of the project and show Czarnecki’s artistic activities in the light of the theory of paraartistic values contained in the book Reality aesthetics by Maria Gołaszewska.
