UPCOMING EXHIBIT UPDATE!

"v o i d" by Sieglinde Van Damme
Visuals by Sieglinde Van Damme
Soundtrack: "Chaos Geometry" composed by Cole Ingraham, adapted by Cole and Sieglinde
October 8, 2026 - November 18, 2026

Next week, we will be transitioning into the second part of Sieglinde Van Damme's exhibit from "-futility in three acts-" to "v o i d" starting Thursday, October 8, 2026.

Created during a period of questions and transitions, v o i d explores the tension between external momentum and internal truth. Using imagery of endless traffic flows, intersections, and movement, the work reflects on the pace of contemporary life and our willingness to participate in it, resist it, or simply endure it.

The title refers not to absence, but to a space of awareness. Beneath routines, expectations, and constant motion lies a place where doubt, desire, and other possibilities become visible. It is there, within the void, that questions emerge: Are we moving toward something or away from it? Are our choices truly our own? What happens when the path we are following no longer feels aligned?

Come by and visit us once it's installed!
