HUMAN BEING ART EXHIBITION
“Human being” art exhibit illuminates the multifaceted nature of humanity and acknowledges the complexity of the human condition. The artist captures moments of joy, love and connection; each art piece speaks to the inherent dignity and grace of the human spirit while not shying away from the shadows that dwell within us.
“Human Being” is more than an art exhibition; it is a testament to the power of art as a tool of healing, curiosity and connection to our spirit(the true self), to one another and to nature. Amidst all the chaos and turmoil of life there is beauty to be found, light to guide us and the darkness to embrace. Enjoy an evening of light bites, drinks, a curated playlist by the artist (scan QR Code of flyer) and an art table where you can tap into your own human being experience.
