Curator Notes
We are in the next phase of the Corona-virus pandemic where the shock period is over and now we are learning to live with it or die with it.
Everything has changed and everything is changing.
Year 2020 has been a blast to say it lightly.
All the seams and bases of every system are tested and exposed.
Concepts and thoughts:
Right now, the whole world is suffering the lock-downs, social distancing and most importantly a constant ‘parade of fear’ about the possible death of loved ones due to Corona-virus.
Some people believe that this pandemic is a real genocidal threat that has the potential to kill all the humans on earth if it is not stopped in time. Then there are others who think that this is all just a deep state conspiracy to control our freedom.
But one thing that is true is that this pandemic has changed the way we live our lives for the time being at least.
If Corona doesn’t go away, would we completely change the way we live?
Would this social distancing become the new way of life?
Digital art experience
Since there are recurring lockdowns in our cities, this online virtual show is serving as a replacement for a real show in an art gallery. The most interesting quality and distinction a digital art in a virtual gallery space has over real gallery artwork is that you can enjoy it in the comforts of your homes, in your own hands or laps.
A painting is complete on a canvas or panel. A print is on paper. An sculpture has its undeniable physicality. But sometimes, a digital artwork can have your laptop or your smartphone as the final product
Curating the Creatives
Since we are the creative clan,
We have searched deep, in our souls & our systems.
We have found reflections and resolutions.
We request you to enjoy with open hearts & minds.
