Hladík’s series of symbiotic reliquaries began to take shape in 2006. These objects are co-created with the assistance of Canadian wildlife. After exposing his semi-finished objects to random attacks of black bears, fishers, martens, raccoons, birds and insects in the outdoors, he gathers these marked/ mangled remnants and engages in part preservation, part restoration work in his studio. The partially destroyed objects are then enhanced and complemented by additional natural elements, entropic drawings, vintage ready-mades and decorative elements. When this elaborate embalming ritual is accomplished, the final “relic” is then entombed in a protective museum display.
