Far from Somewhere
10 - 24 October
Far From Somewhere is a collective, interdisciplinary contemporary art exhibition that explores the intersection of mental well-being and our changing physical and urban environments. It addresses the way environmental and social transformations impact our mental health and sense of identity, encouraging a shift in perspective towards transitional, adaptive spaces known as "ecotones." The exhibition invites viewers to reflect on urban surroundings, revealing complexities and promoting mental well-being through shared responsibility and resilient environments.
