A place for diverse art

We are the ancestors of the future, and it is important for us to be conscious of the stories that we pass on. How are we letting go of narratives that limit us individually and divide us collectively? 

The exhibition features works by several different artists. Alongside the artworks, there will be a program to create impermanent and communal experiences.

Kairos

Kairos is an organization that curates events, such as workshops, poetry sessions, and experimental exhibitions.

The meaning of the word kairos (n.) describes the delicate perfection of time and place that allow specific movements and words to happen. Similarly, Kairos curates initial conditions for creativity and pop-up communities to merge. The curations emphasize the continuance between audience, artist and creativity. At its heart, Kairos is a soft space for different narratives to meet and explore artistic expression.
