way we engage in reality and create meaning in our lives. Art is about 
choice and personal statements that probe at what lay behind 
appearances. It is about what we chose to be in our lives… how we relate 
to reality as a creative project that acknowledges the humanity and 
beauty that we create and express. This exhibition is a reflection of 
the times in which we live.
