The Body Construct: Between Flesh and Thought explores the intricate relationship between the body and identity, examining how the physical form shapes and is shaped by personal, societal, and cultural narratives. This exhibition challenges viewers to reconsider the body not merely as a physical entity but as a framework through which we interpret and construct our own sense of self. Through a series of dynamic questions and diverse works of art, the exhibition delves into the power of bodies as sites of control, transformation, and expression, inviting reflection on how the body both influences and mirrors the mind, self, and identity.
