Nietzsche Plants Cherries
"Nietzsche Plants Cherries" presents a philosophical paradox: cultivation through destruction. Standing amid wild growth, the artist hammers downward in rhythm with church bells, embodying Nietzsche's assertion that creation requires chaos. The deteriorating car beneath contrasts sharply with the planting suggested in the title, critiquing modernity while referencing Nietzsche's skepticism toward technological progress. This contradiction between creation (planting cherries) and destruction (hammering) perfectly illustrates Nietzsche's concept of creative destruction. The performance enacts "philosophizing with a hammer" – sounding out hollow values to clear space for new philosophical growth.

This series visually interprets the relationships between consciousness, existence, and universality. It responds to Descartes' "Cogito, ergo sum" by questioning whether individual awareness truly precedes broader existence. Tudić's installation suggests that pure Being exists independently, unconditioned by particular entities.
Journey backwards, not a return to the same
The "Journey" installation examines self-understanding through our connections to others alongside our struggle to grasp unity. Tudić contrasts the certainty of personal existence with ongoing growth and change, revealing how competition exposes the limits of our comprehension. Drawing inspiration from rugby, he suggests that meaningful development comes through challenge rather than destruction, guiding visitors beyond binary thinking toward more comprehensive perspectives.
