Mirage

Mirage is the illusion that guides and deceives, the image that shimmers at
the edge of perception. It is the encounter between what is seen and what
is imagined, between the world as it is and the world as it could be.
Mirage defines deception: an oasis that does not exist, a vision too distant
to reach. It is the birth and rebirth of dreams, the tribal dance that captures
the mind. It is the setting of absolute desolation, and yet the caravan lines
glimmer in the distance, drawn across a horizon that is but sand dunes and
heat.

This exhibition unfolds like a journey through the desert, a passage from
dawn to dusk, from blinding clarity to nocturnal silence. Each work marks a
moment along the way, tracing a landscape where light, time, and human
presence constantly shift; beginning in the early hours, expanding into the
heat of day, and dissolving into the deep hues of night.
Mirage brings together artists whose practices move between reality and
illusion, distance and intimacy. The show reflects on how perception is
shaped by displacement, memory, and desire.

Mirage is both revelation and uncertainty, a space where ritual and
imagination intertwine. In this terrain, the human is not merely a spectator
but a traveler, finding form and truth in the very act of pursuit.
