Welcome to Interwoven Realities – a group exhibition at HARTA – where the boundaries of reality blur and intersect in a mesmerising display of artistic expression. Interwoven Realities brings together the works of 32 talented artists, each offering a unique perspective on the intricate tapestry of existence.
Within these walls, you will encounter diverse styles and mediums, reflecting the multifaceted nature of our shared reality. From the ethereal landscapes of abstraction to the precision of geometric lines, from the evocative narratives of figurative art to the cutting-edge innovation of digital creations, every piece contributes to the rich fabric of our collective experience.
Sculptures rise like monuments to human ingenuity, while text-based art speaks volumes in its silent eloquence. Textile and fibre-based works invite touch, weaving threads of meaning and memory into tangible form.
As you wander through this exploratory exhibition, allow yourself to be transported beyond the confines of everyday perception. Here, the boundaries between the real and the imagined blur, inviting contemplation and sparking conversation. Interwoven Realities invites you to discover the myriad ways in which our world is shaped, connected, and transformed through the lens of artistic vision.
