Transcendence

Amidst the tapestry of existence, we yearn to ascend beyond the realms of the known . . .
Our spirit extends in a silent cosmic plea to touch the infinite . . .
Each moment is a revelation as we embrace the unknown . . .
Infinite, we become, in the universe we’ve flown . . .


In an increasingly interconnected yet often disconcertingly disconnected world, ‘Transcendence’ invites us to explore uncharted territories within ourselves and the more expansive universe. It is a space where the realms of art, consciousness, and sensorial experience(s) converge, orchestrating a harmonious symphony of creativity while encouraging us to embrace the enigmatic.

In the vast realm of human experience(s), the notion of transcendence has perpetually entranced the human spirit. It extends an invitation to look beyond the mundane's confines, delve into the ineffable, and aspire to a higher plane of existence.

Whether you find resonance in the poetic verses of Rumi, the philosophical musings of Camus, or the cosmic voyages envisioned by Arthur C. Clarke, this exhibition encapsulates a diverse array of voices and perspectives on the theme of transcendence. Its mission is to illuminate the universal yearning that binds humanity together - the ambition to transcend our perceived boundaries, to touch the sublime, and to soar beyond the confines of our lived reality.

Visitors to this exhibition are encouraged to explore a rich tapestry of artistic styles, mediums, and viewpoints. From the bold brushstrokes that defy the limitations of the canvas to the intricate details of realism, which invite us into deeply personal worlds, each piece mirrors the artist’s journey, whether it’s a journey within, or an exploration of the outer world. Within the framework of this exhibition, you will find representations of their individual and collective experience(s), exploration of the self, and revelations are represented within the framework of this exhibition.

Transcendence is an exhibition with the outcome of an eight-week transdisciplinary residency program organized by Flusslab. Seven artists from Argentina, Belarus, Poland, Portugal, Spain, and Mexico were invited to come to Coswig (Anh.) and realize a new project in situ. How different settings and surroundings change one’s perception, thoughts, and behavior was the backdrop idea of the residency. In other words, the symbiotic relationship between the space and oneself and how they impact each other.
