Description As part of the opening of the exhibition "The Man who Returned from Space Back to Earth" by Tomáš Moravanský at Studio PRÁM, a performance took place in the space for several hours, about which the public was not informed and, even after visiting the exhibition, had no idea that anything was happening. The performance took place behind the closed door of the fuse room, which is located right in the gallery space, but to open it one had to be a bit more curious or cheeky. Eventually, after about an hour, when someone subtly dared to do this act, they were astonished to discover a figure in a clown costume facing the fuses in the darkness of the small room. The figure wore an expression as if it had just been disturbed. This aroused a wave of interest, and visitors from the outside area returned inside the gallery after the word got out. For many, this unexpected discovery made it seem as if it was the clown that had been controlling the gallery's lighting all along, but this was not the case. Some were literally reassured by this discovery that someone else was indeed manipulating the whole lighting situation. A few people even thought it was a mannequin and had to check up close with terrified cries of "it's alive!"
