An exhibition situating ritual as an active framework through which contemporary practice organizes meaning and shared experience

16 APRIL 2026 - 30 MAY 2026

Before art became image, it was performed.

Across cultures, ritual has served as a structure through which belief takes form and time is momentarily held.

As articulated by Émile Durkheim, ritual is the moment in which a society becomes visible to itself, a space where knowledge is enacted and shared experience intensifies into collective presence.

R I T U A L brings together artists whose practices engage with this enduring logic.
