TAKE MY HAND AND I’LL SHOW YOU WHAT WAS AND WILL BE. A closing line to an opening song of a final album. An invitation to an exploration of the wide-ranged conditions of human identity and contemplations on them.

Being attracted by the aesthetics of both the immensely atrocious as well as the overwhelmingly beautiful, we as human beings deal with universal issues. The undeniable disparity between what we as a society commonly agree upon as real life and our individually perceived reality – aligned to the purpose of prevarication – remains uncanny. Self-destructive behavioural patterns reflect on the paradigms of contemporary times and emotional mechanisms, as seductive illusions consume us with heart and soul.

Embracing those identity fomenting directions emerging from plurality, proprioceptively renegotiating the fragility of both the physical and the virtual self, this tone-setting and program-defining group exhibition explores this spectrum in all its beauty and atrocity.
