How Does Art Shape Our Consciousness?

In this exhibition, we explore how an artistic image becomes more than just a visual representation; rather it's a tool with a profound impact on the human mind, compelling us to contemplate the relationship between art and perception.

The Tarot has been used as a clear example of art's role in shaping the hidden dimensions of our consciousness. It serves as an exceptional visual medium that combines art and symbolic design, Its strange ability to speak a unique language to each viewer is the most distinctive feature in it.

A collection of images that transcends fixed meaning, taking on a different form in the eye of each recipient. What one person sees as a promise, another may see as a warning. What suggests a beginning to one, might indicate an end to another.

Through the Tarot, which is considered a symbolic system carrying within it historical stages and human experiences, we dive into the influence of the image and the role of art, which is not merely a reflection of the world. Instead, it is an active tool in shaping it and in determining how we see the world around us.

This exhibition is not an interpretation or a prediction of the unseen, but rather an invitation to contemplation. An invitation to read images as you read dreams. Purely artistic works that do not offer answers, but rather pose questions that arise from within us and reshape our consciousness through what we see.
