<(PLEASE) DO NOT DISTURB> is an immersive journey into a tranquil sanctuary amidst the chaos of the digital age. In a world pulsating with ceaseless information and relentless connectivity, we find ourselves amidst a whirlwind of content, struggling to discern what truly matters. Anxiety seeps through the cracks of our existence as technology, once intended to elevate us, now overwhelms our senses, distorts truths, and amplifies our fears.
The duality of our online personas and the incessant fear of missing out have fragmented our attention spans, transforming us into passive consumers rather than mindful explorers. Algorithms dictate our choices, shaping our experiences into bite-sized stimuli devoid of depth and reflection.
In response, Team ‘Presence’ has created <(PLEASE) DO NOT DISTURB> exhibition that delves into how associated meanings from physical experiences can be integrated with digital experiences, providing a concrete method to explore layers of viewpoints proposed by numerous artists. This initiative thus challenges the rigidity of previous dialectics and fosters new possibilities by acknowledging the deluge of information and the unknown as meaningful elements of our perception.
It is a transitional space for you to reduce anxiety, recalibrate feelings of overload and threat, and enrich cross-dimensional experience. We hope you will recognize your disorientation as a norm through our exhibition, anchored by this cultural narrative we constructed with 79 artists who submitted their works via Open Call.
