Accumulation

Accumulation is the second exhibition by this group of artists, following Inhale, presented at Silk Road Gallery in 2016 as part of the Random Images project.

Every day, the media expose us to thousands of images, which settle into our visual memory, intentionally or by chance, and shape it. Starting from this flow, each artist chose one image at random as a source. Once seen, the image took on a personal dimension: each artist reinterpreted it through their own outlook and experience, before finally discovering what the picture actually depicted.
