25.01.2023 – 08.02.2023 Shadows “The brightest flame casts the darkest shadow.” – George R.R. Martin Plato´s allegory “the cave” depicts a group of individuals who have spent their whole life imprisoned against a black wall, chained on the cave´s wall. They named the shadows they see on the wall cast by objects moving in front of a fire behind them. For the inmates, the shadows depict the outside world, although these images are not to scale. Objects in the shade reflect the incomplete fragment of reality, a delusion of reality that our selves perceive, while those in the light represent the object’s actual shapes, which can be perceived only through logic and understanding. Shadows symbolize mystery, secrets, uncertainty, and even some evil. The darkness of the shadows obscures our eyesight, and as a result, we can never be quite sure what takes on there. Those who seek the truth are like a prisoner who is freed from the cave and comes to understand that the shadows on the wall are actually not the direct source of the images seen; they aim to understand and perceive the high level of reality. However, the other inmates of the cave do not even desire to leave their prison, for they know no better life. This exhibition aims to give another interpretation of the shadows. Shadows do not necessarily mean darkness, secrets or “blindness” but can be our way to the light or even we can find safety in the shadows.

09.11.2022 – 20.11.2022 Who you are You are all invited to our group exhibition “Who you are” on the 9th of November 2022 at our art space in Wedding. In this group exhibition, the artists connect the concept of Identity with art, and as a viewer, you will discover different artists who work with various techniques and see to explain through their work who they are. “Who you are” is our way of binding the concept of “nothingness” and viewers and bringing to the surface the egoless state of being in which we fully realize our small part in the cosmos. It is our way of connecting artists and viewers and fostering a dialogue between them.
