Brave New World

Opening: Friday August 8th, 7 p.m In 1932, Aldous Huxley envisioned a world where happiness was regulated through total control: a society devoid of art, family, philosophy, and love. His Brave New World was not a dystopia built on ruins, but on efficiency, consumption, and chemical obedience.

Nearly a century later, we no longer need to imagine the future to see its signs: constant surveillance, deep inequality, slogan-driven desire, and growing distrust in independent thought define a present eerily close to that fiction. Rather than projecting a future world, this exhibition closely examines what is already unfolding. The works gathered here neither explain nor promise. Instead, they act as subtle disruptions, images that veer off course, pieces that resist full alignment. The objective may not be to create something entirely new, but to interpret things differently: to change the lighting, defer the gesture, and allow things to become disarranged. In an age of swiftly declared happiness, art can—at times—cast a shadow, a doubt, a possibility. It is something we do not fully understand, yet it stays with us.
