“Not For Sale” - Group Exhibition at New York

We live in a world that demands a “why.” In a culture obsessed with optimization, we are told that every work must serve a purpose: it should be for a portfolio, for a client, or for sale. We’ve been conditioned to treat our creativity like a factory—if it doesn’t produce “value,” we’re told it’s a waste of time.

 

But we are looking for the work that was born without a destination. What about the work that simply saved you? What about the messy sketches you made while stuck on a Zoom call, the weird abstract shapes you doodled just to keep your hands from shaking, or the pieces that are “too personal” to sell and “too weird” to post? We want the art that happened when you stopped trying to be "productive" and started being honest.
