Double Q Gallery is delighted to announce ‘Reflections on Being’, a group exhibition bringing together eight artists, including Zsófia Antalka, Ewa Czwartos, David Farcaș, Shuang Jiang, Elena Rivera-Montanes, Rita Süveges, Ivana Vozelj, and Karolina Żądło.

The exhibition reflects on a person’s identity that is a blurred construction of the internal and the external world. Since ancient civilizations, humans have explored this tension, which became a blueprint in our understanding of a person’s existence. This duality is present everywhere: from the separation of body and soul, mind and body, as well as reason and emotion. In Greek philosophy, Plato was among the first to explore this, according to whom the soul was free from the body being immortal. In Chinese philosophy, this duality is referred to as yin and yang, where opposite forces are seen as dependent on each other, and it is a dynamic balance that humans aim to achieve. 

Opening reception: Saturday, 19 July from 3-6 PM

Gallery address: 68 Lok Ku Road, Sheung Wan
