RESEARCH ABSTRACT: The exhibition aims to provide a platform where artists can share their thoughts on how the pandemic changes their careers and lives. To some extent, the process of communication is an artistic exploration and design research itself.
CHALLENGE: COVID 19 is both the project's biggest challenge as well as the trigger. As Internet remains as the most viable and contingent way of connections nowadays, this exhibition takes this opportunity to invite artists for meaningful and engaging conversations, dialogues, and Q&As to share their thoughts and perspectives around art and its enduring possibilities: its creative agency in making changes, its role as a conceptual catalyst, its capacity to trigger inspirations, ideas, stories, and its therapeutic function for emotional and mental states.
