Tropic of Perception features new works by Korakrit Arunanondchai, FX Harsono, Kumari Nahappan, Vong Phaophanit and Claire Oboussier, Chemi Rosado Seijo and Pam Virada.
Tropic of Perception explores the shifting nature of perception—how environments, histories, and sensorial experiences shape the way we see and understand the world. The exhibition considers how states of flux, transition, and transformation impact memory, identity, and knowledge production. Through a variety of media, the artists in this exhibition engage with questions of materiality, temporality, and the slippages between the real and the imagined.
Bringing together artists who work across different registers of materiality, temporality, and mediated experience, Tropic of Perception blurs boundaries between presence and absence, visibility and obscurity, certainty and ambiguity. It considers perception as a dynamic, ever-evolving landscape—one that is not fixed but in constant motion, where meaning is formed in the act of seeing and re-seeing.
