What: This exhibition features specially commissioned works by 13 local artists and examines the role of art in contemporary society.
In a media-saturated world where we have become anesthetised, due to our experience of the ever-changing myriad of images each day, the exhibition shows us how art can bring us back in touch with our senses and make us feel again. In so doing, it further analyses the social role of art in an imperfect world. And as the title suggests, the site-specific works in the exhibition will also highlight how we do not have to look too far to experience art in our daily lives. That it can always be found around us, if only we take a moment to stop and take notice.
