Can art be related to the mysteries of the world and everyday life, magical powers, supernatural phenomena as well as mythology, legends and animism? This emphasis is not a desire to question the limits of science, glorify mysticism or pursue art as a form of entertainment. Rather, by reexamining these realms, which cannot be explained through logic or reason, we can shed light on values which have been marginalized or even forgotten while considering the relationship between humans and nature which offers a more flexible and open way of relating to the world as well as alternative views of things and historical events.
Further, through the development of various forms of technology and means of communication, our conception of time and space has undergone a significant change, leading us to question our ability to comprehend the world, the substance of things we see before us and the meaning of truth in an era in which the boundary between reality and fiction has become blurred. Moreover, in what has been termed an ‘age of anxiety’ with no clear way forward, this exhibition proposes to offer an alternative through the use of the imagination and a change in perspective whilst examining the possibility of faith or belief in an era that lacks any meaningful or reliable political ideology.
In short, this exhibition envisages a situation in which the viewer would momentarily find it impossible to identify the context of the art they were confronted with thereby asking ‘when?’; ‘where?’; and ‘how?’ thereby creating a magical journey transcending space and time where various works of art meet, elicit emotional reactions and pose a wide array of questions.
