This exhibition brings together more than 120 artists who use figuration and portraiture to examine the complexities of the human condition: the power of perception, the weight of trauma, the possibilities for healing, the space for introspection, the sense of belonging, and the impact on the flesh. Through various media—including photography, painting, sculpture, and video—the body is referenced as a vessel that experiences, documents, participates, and transforms throughout life’s journey. The duality of the body—its materiality and immateriality—becomes a visual landscape where dynamics of representation, from individual to collective, are addressed, illustrating the persistence of figuration in contemporary art.
