Figuratively Speaking

Figuratively Speaking is a virtual exhibition celebrating depictions of body within art.

​

Touch starved and distanced, we are now more aware than ever of our physical presence. Aware of the space we take up, the way it feels to breathe, to move, to hold and be held. Aware of the invisible lines between us that we must now navigate, the lines that move and shift our embodied experience of the world. Every day has become a dance, every interaction a language of body talk.

This exhibition will celebrate the bodies that carry us. Through the eyes of the contributing artists we will appreciate how the figure communicates our humanity. We will share in how it tells our stories of desire, fear, vulnerability and resilience.

Project the Lie

What is the truth?
What is the lie?
Are you telling me the truth? Are you lying?

Can I create my own reality through the lies?

This project is an invitation to people around the world who’d like to share their lies.

Lying seems the easiest way to save the moment that we suffer in. However, finding the best lie to say is not easy. With dozens of lie we live, we pick only one of them for salvation.

Share your lie. What did you say? No one wonders the truth.
As we want to read the book of travel before we go for a vacation, we need a creative lie guide for better life experience. Submissions to be published as a guide book.
Share your best lie in order to create a best lies book.

APPARITIONS

This Halloween, we’re asking artists and performers to reimagine the theme of dis-possession and the invisible for a virtual exhibition, APPARITIONS, accepting all mediums. Coming from a diasporic perspective, dis-possession is: separation and disconnect from ancestors, heritage, land, and bodies.
