Lineage, history, identity, land, and the body. Not as topic but material. Something to imprint. Something that might resist. Root features artists who work with natural materials and processes in ways that are deliberate, instinctive, or quietly unresolved. There is no central message, only a shared insistence on looking deeper. 

Featured artworks form a terrain marked by tension and tenderness, structure and fracture. A place where meaning shifts through interaction; tilting, recalibrated, and changed. Bringing artists into dialogue with the land, ecology, care, and our shared responsibility to the environments we inhabit, Root is a multimedia exhibition that frames the world as a source of potential and possibility. 

What was once discarded is returned to circulation, not polished into something lacking humanity, but understood as already containing meaning: weight, memory, and consequence. Through works that hold intimacy with place, decay and renewal, and human impact on the natural world, this exhibition considers how art endures not through abundance, but through adaptation.

This approach extends past the gallery’s walls. Sustainable practice is a method, not solely a theme: a way of working with what is present and ephemeral. Mutual aid functions the same way, acknowledging the conditions we share and redistributing what we have. Neither is symbolic. Both are necessary. Both come from the same premise: care is practical. Care is structural, a part of how we live with the world and with each other.
