Going Back Home


On the meaning of “Return”
On the meaning of “Home”
Since we are... on the other side of the catastrophe
We returned home...
And we were forced to redefine it!
Although the very essence of our freedom has been undermined – we are moving inwards...
Towards the open space where our thoughts and imagination float freely

To those who found the lockdown period to be one of discovery; those who, by maintaining distance, found themselves...
Those who realized humanity lies in simple, yet profound, acts...
The exhibition seeks to unveil new ways to connect and react with the crisis, highlight the importance of thoughts and feelings, form new connections, and try to perceive everything that has happened from different angles.
