This particular booth explores artist’s dalliances within a mystical realm, which can be either embracing or negating. As physical vessels connecting the artist to the world, a work of art can also serve as a metaphysical link. The works shown address themes of spirituality, time, transhumanism and technology. We invite the viewer to engage—perhaps distantly—with an eerie seductiveness that drives a search for balance despite overhanging imbalance.
