Summary/Abstract: This sketch refers to the presence of the artist in the field of social research. The author looks at the situation when the artist on his own initiative enters into the field of scientific research, especially concerning the social effects of the political and economic transformation after 1989. The sculpture and its artistic interpretation were examined in the form of a film by Artur Żmijewski, which came into life during the realization of The Souvenir of Cellulose within the framework of the project Awakening in Świecie in 2009. Both implementations are a kind of group experiment within the wider project Awakening of a curator Karina Dzieweczyńska. The main objective of the artist was to investigate how in an altered socio-economic situation – with the market economy – the form of an open air is working out under the auspices of an industrial plant.
