GROUP SHOW

Art is where reality and dreams collide. Through it, we can begin to consider the world differently and explore ways to live better. Reflect. Reimagine. Reset. traces the self-fulfilling sequence art creation proposes and postulates a moment to take stock of the present while moving forwards with renewed intentionality. Reflect. Reimagine. Reset. does not attempt to summarise the current moment, but rather celebrates the ways these artists offer alternative realities as solutions.

In this particular moment the role of the artist has become increasingly important as artists are able to imagine worlds that are not bound by the constraints of reality, practicality, physics or the desire for order. Abstract solutions offer a gateway into new ways of thinking. In this way, art has more in common with metaphysics that study the realities beyond the physical world. Through their imaginations, artists offer us unlimited ways of approaching physical realities. By tapping into these capacities for creative thought, artists create worlds that are more just and equitable.
