Exploring Time and Process
“SLOWED & THROWED” is more than just a title; it encapsulates the essence of the exhibition. The phrase draws inspiration from a genre of music that emphasizes the importance of taking one’s time, allowing for a deeper engagement with the creative process. Each artist in this exhibition explores the idea of slowing down—whether it’s in the act of creating or in the way we engage with art.
Through their works, the artists invite us to consider how time serves as a storytelling medium. The pieces on display encourage contemplation, urging viewers to reflect on their relationship with art and the narratives that unfold within each piece.
A Unique Venue
Set in the heart of New York City at Chinatown Arcade, the venue itself adds an intriguing layer to the exhibition. With its eclectic vibe and artistic history, Chinatown Arcade provides an inspiring backdrop for this collection of works. The space allows for a natural interaction between art and audience, fostering a sense of community among attendees.
