Low Tea Ceremony

Low Tea Ceremony

How do we face and nurture a sense of emptiness for true well-being that embraces both the positive and negative aspects of life? From the beginning to the end of our existence, we encounter emptiness at one point or another in our lives. However, the shape, color, and frequency of emptiness varies from person to person. Feeling of void arises from the finitude of life, the gap between ideals and reality, wavering faith, or the cyclical nature of existence. In the upcoming exhibitions, artists and designers confront and digest their own kinds of void through writing essays periodically about the self realization of individual void and their relation to the culture we live in. By granting shapes and colors to the impalpable existence, the artists invite audiences to various types and contexts of voids and offer reassuring moments in the sympathy of the time. Through the exhibition, the collective also hopes to introduce the self-inquiring attitude on the cycle of constant affirmation, allowing us to contemplate the potholes of one’s life and therefore question what a ‘better future’ truly is.
