Wake challenges us to remain present in an era of constant distraction and displacement.
Through interconnected works in sculpture, charcoal, paint, and black and white photography, the exhibition weaves together intimate explorations of place, identity, and human connection.
The artists' diverse practices converge in their shared concern for our fractured times, where past traumas remain unresolved and present moments slip by unexamined. The works serve as both witness and warning—a call to wake from our collective slumber and engage with the complexities of being alive in this moment.
Wake tasks viewers to pause, to reflect, and to acknowledge the weight of what we carry. In doing so, it offers a rare space for genuine encounter—with art, with memory, and with ourselves.
