Description
Gap is the void between matters physically, metaphorically, theoretically, and more. From the gap caused by misunderstanding in communication, to the gap of comprehension between generations, to the gap between values of different cultures and nations, the list goes on and on. The space between “where we are”, the present, and “where we want to be”, the future, is also called “gap”.
The voids between matters named as “gaps” fill in this unnamable space. A space where possibilities out of built structures are no longer limited, a space unknown that leads to undefined “fillings”, if that is how we should name it. Where there is an unknown, there is fear, but is it not also where freedom lays. If there is freedom, there is a place for renegotiation, there is a place for art.
Stepping into the 2020s is bizarrely surreal, adopting the highlighted gap between virtual and actual is almost overloading. Please Mind the Gap as a showcase of the outcome of the two-year MFA programme is unlike ever before. This is a “special” class of students where some of us have never seen each other face to face. As always, being extraordinary is at the same time a curse and a blessing. While witnessing this inescapable gap, we open the space for discussion to redefine it.
