Urban Arts Space is excited to announce the theme for March’s Artist Commune: Portable Paradise. We invite artists to radically explore the idea of paradise in a pop-up exhibition. Questions that shape this theme: Who are the architects of Paradise? Who is on the margins in dominant ideas of Paradise? Who is invited? Who gets the authority to name what Paradise is like? How do you get there? Shaped but not limited by these questions, we’re asking artists to create work that engages the metaphysical, tangible, and personal to re-imagine Paradise.
The objective of this exhibition is to showcase a diverse range of interpretations of Paradise through various artistic mediums. We aim to create a space that challenges the way our unique identities and socioeconomic positions shape our concept of Paradise.
