Erode”

AUTUM GROUP SHOW CONTEST
“Happy the World So Made ?”
Sometimes,
happy everyday life starts to disturb us slightly. What seemed usual, familiar
and even in a way trivial, suddenly takes unexpected shapes; just as reality
denuded of all its deficiencies and secrets. The “Happy the World So Made?”
exhibition is an attempt to register the specific moment when we start to doubt
in what we are surrounded by, and happy reality does not seem to be the same
safe space anymore…
Exhibit Dates: November 15 – December 10, 2008
