BREATHING SPACE There are often times where we feel the need to switch off, do nothing, say nothing, go nowhere and think of what we should do next. These are the moments that we need to ourselves which we cannot do without and are the basic premises that found the necessary space needed to reflect, think back and let the mind go blank. While this can be conducive to artistic production, at the same time, this sense of inaction is somehow uncomfortable and we need to produce and realize these new ideas. The aim of this exhibition is to provide artists with this breathing space, a vacant place where they can spend some time in or a place which can just serve as inspiration for a new project. From a variety of media such as installation, video, print, sculpture and drawing, the artist’s reflect on moments that made them stop. With an infinite influx of opportunities around us we manage somehow to become stuck, we freeze, but moments of respite such as this allows us out of that corner and into a clearing where everything is possible and nothing is out of reach. Our minds are clear and we feel unburdened and, free from ourselves and our own expectations, we think of nothing and sometimes nothing is enough!
