Events
Of adversity, resilience and adaptability.
Life is a tempestuous sea, fraught with squalls and headwinds. Yet, within every soul lies a core of iron, a steadfastness that enables us to ride out the roughest seas.
Troubled Waters is an introspective voyage into the depths of human
resilience. From the solitary sailor battling the elements to the crew united against adversity, this collection explores the myriad ways we find our bearings in life's storms. It is a testament to the human spirit, a beacon in the night for those caught in the doldrums.
To weather a storm is to prove one’s mettle, to demonstrate an unwavering resolve. Let these works inspire you to batten down the hatches, steady your course, and emerge from life’s tempest stronger than before.
Art, love & war.
Turning the sands of time into the inseparable aspects of human history, the ordinary, the cherished, even the hurtful. To relive but not lament, a purpose as worded by Maya Angelou,
History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again.
It hasn't been a decade since the mass monetization of negative emotions produced during cultural and political tensions became an expected commodity, and recently the artificial intelligence craze and automation have given looming sense of uncertainty to blue and white collars all the same. The constant divide & shifting allegiances in political unrest might come and go inevitably, aging as quickly as any tragedy we're desensitized against, whereas the threat of the latter is by miles more effective, immediate, and unknown in its repercussions.
Closest to heart are of course the foundation of our world and neighboring industries. From visual artists who have spent the better part of their years for their work to stand out within the continuously piling archives of history just to have them replicated by an AI model overnight, to the Writers Guild Association whose absence clearly left impact in the major productions company during the walkout that had to extend to a staggering five-month strike despite the reliance. In light of the uncertain future of opened Pandora's box , OMG? RED! ^ D^ is an homage to fellow creators who are blissfully ignorant towards of said pathos. The often contradictory relationship of happiness that the modern age both takes away & allows. The lighthearted minutiae, complex vulnerabilities, or even resilience born out of rage towards negativity itself.
Red, a color provoking energy, stimulation, and anger, is the dominant theme, reflecting the intensity of emotions along with other warm colors. Also the hue of love, excitement and fervor, this exhibition aims to spark the elusive but inextinguishable human spirit in our often treacherous and sometimes traitorous pursuit of happiness, as well as reinvigorate passion in each’s devotion, not unlike the artists’ resolution in their respective crafts.
OMG? RED! ^ D^ Flier, Stefany Zefanya edition
While 2020 saw the final births of Generation Alpha, understanding their defining attributes remains elusive at their young age of 4-14 years old. noting especially the fact that the one that came before it has been the least internally idiosyncratic for better and worse under multi-faceted flux of influence.
Though both Generations Alpha and Z share the "Strawberry Generation" moniker for their perceived sensitivity, their digital literacy as natives and early settlers sets them apart. There should be no better older sibling figure than latest Millennials and early Zoomers, bridging the gap and guiding Alpha through their formative years. *Closed Alpha Testing* aims to scope closer into the world our most impressionable are entering through their personal and/or critical lens.
