ABOUT THE SHOW
An exploration of the present moment through the lens of personal growth and introspection, captured by diverse artistic voices.
‘To Be Here Now Is To Be_’ invites both artists and viewers to reflect on their well-being —mental, emotional, or physical— as well as their personal experiences and connections. This group show embraces the notion that this present moment shapes who we are and how we choose to express ourselves. To be immersed in the present, in all of our complexity and depth, feet planted firmly to whatever ground graces the souls of our feet, is to fully embrace and honor our current experiences, allowing them to shape and define our collective narrative. Each curated piece serves as a snapshot of the artist’s journey through various moments of their life, whether those moments are categorized by growth, introspection, or transformation. These pieces collectively remind us of the beauty and the significance of being present.
Drawing inspiration from ‘A Concept: You’, this show explores how personal narratives and experiences translate into creative expressions. Join us in this immersive space, where each work of art invites you to reflect on your own responses to the question: ‘To Be Here Now Is To Be___’?
