The stories we tell

19 April 2025 until 26 October 2025

Exhibition

This activity has ended.

In The stories we tell, contemporary artists weave narratives to explore what has passed, to make sense of what surrounds us now, and to imagine what might yet come.

Movement

History moves. A story in constant motion, always yielding to fresh interpretation. The stories we tell presents art as something that shifts the ground beneath our feet. The artists gathered here illuminate society through their own lens—each perspective a different angle of light. They expose the frameworks we live within, challenge what we accept without question. The works assembled here suggest that history refuses to stay fixed, remains instead a living narrative, written and rewritten with each telling.

Gaze

By bringing together these varied artist voices, The stories we tell opens space for unexpected perspectives. An invitation to look again—with sharper eyes, with curiosity renewed—at the world that shapes us, so we might shape what comes next with greater intention. What stories do we choose to tell? What kind of world do we want to inhabit?
