Deep in the human unconscious is a pervasive need for a logical universe that makes sense, but the real universe is always one step beyond logic. It is impossible to live in the past, difficult to live in the present, and a waste to live in the future. The mystery of life isn’t a problem to solve, but a reality to experience. Seek freedom and become captive of your desires. Seek discipline and find liberty in a world of your construction. This exhibition puts us inside the moment of a constructive summer.
