The exhibition comprises new works by seven artists, all born after 1970. In their works, complex worlds interact, springing from the minds of different individuals, where objects and beings run wild. Creativity is unlimited, and we experience diverse visual worlds as each artist invites us to share his or her own reality. Some of the pieces display a childlike joy in a world of limitless fantasy, while others draw the observer into a mystical world of wonders. Pastiches of the everyday, cunning supernatural creatures, spiritual torment, New Age philosophy and childhood are among themes which imbue the exhibition with enthusiasm and sincerity.
