“Change is the very nature of Nature. If there's one thing that doesn't change, it is the fact that everything changes.” — Ilchi Lee

We are currently living in a time of undeniable transformation. Our world is changing, environmentally, socially, and politically, at a rate that can often feel disorienting and dizzying. The climate is becoming more extreme, new technologies are developing faster than we can process, and social structures that once seemed stable are now shifting beneath our feet. Everything is in motion and nothing is quite static.

Yet, change is not foreign to us. It is also part of the world’s natural order; embedded within the shifting of seasons, the life cycles of plants and animals, and the rise and ebb of tides. Change is filled with tension. It can be beautiful or brutal; orderly or chaotic. It is that which drives us to grow, to adapt, and to begin anew.

This exhibition invites reflection on the many forms of change. From personal transformation to environmental changes, from experiences of loss to acts of renewal, artists have long struggled with the questions which change poses. Some artworks may reflect turning seasons or altered landscapes, while others might explore personal crossroads, artistic shifts, or broader cultural transformations. Whether it happens gradually or abruptly, change will always leave a mark. Through art, we can examine these marks of change through documenting them, questioning them, or by just being present with them.

Join us in reflecting on the beauty, tension, and possibilities that emerge through change.
