Illusion in Art

Jan 15, 2015  -  Apr 10, 2015

The works chosen for this exhibition reflect the reality individuals create as manifestation of their perceptions of the material and immaterial worlds they inhabit. "Reality is merely an illusion, albeit a very persistent one", Albert Einstein. In this respect, one comes to opposition as in translating a language to represent this so-called reality.

"The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place." - George Bernard Shaw. Thus circular attempts one falls back to an altogether different "original" state. Effects of body and affect of mind linger inside of blurred lines, the "original" situation, in which the authenticity and the reliability of the individual is left again open to interpretation.
