About the Exhibition
MISSION:
Using our Art to empower the viewer to think, to hope, and to take action—to make this a better, happier world for every living thing.
Is today's humanity good or bad, or are we now indifferent, sedated by the trappings of this world?
There is a persistent call for using the power of Art to be a catalyst for social change.
Humanity, the exhibition was created to share 5 artists concerns, hopes, and love for human kind and the planet. With over 30 pieces of artwork, using a diverse set of mediums—from wood to plaster, canvas to paper, photography and video installations, the intention is to bring awareness to viewers on topics of modern media, traditions, love, the environment and other topics that impact daily life.
Inspired by humanity itself, one of the focal video installations, is a collection of public opinion from around the world. Where we can see, in one unifying voice, that as people of this earth, we are in fact similar in our thoughts about what humanity is today.

About our Iconography:
An artist like ourselves Leonardo da Vinci's Vitruvian Man is aptly also called the 'Proportions of Man',—the examination of which 'Humanity' has embarked on. The red lamp is synonymous with a thinking cap-a jolt, while the electrical cord plugs us into the world of thought...but it is wrapped around various limbs, symbolizing the complexity of understanding human life.
