This exhibition of artworks has been organized together to stand as a reminder of the connections we share not only with ourselves and other human beings. But with the infinite ecologies that exist across our planet.
Inspired by ideas from the writings of “Lives of a Cell” written by Lewis Thomas.
A study of an ecosystem of ants can tell you all you need to know about the importance of unification to the survival of their societies.
Humans should take note
Singularly, our existence is short but can certainly be impactful beyond our understanding.
So while we are here, we should place our focus on the development of our future alongside strengthening our communities as a whole.
Using artwork as a vessel of communication, this exhibition will create an ecosystem of its own with working and living parts.
New life is born, it flowers, it withers.
Just like everything else
Only to return for a cycle once more
