MESSAGE

Art, without exception, is something site-specific. The location, time, and history in which a work exists—and the emotions and thoughts of the person experiencing it—all become essential components that shape its value and meaning.

The world, as we perceive it, is a collection of fragments. By walking, searching, seeing, touching, and taking action ourselves, we can reshape the world that lies ahead. We are free. Art, the future, and we ourselves—all ought to be free.
