I'm very excited to share with you that I will be participating in the upcoming group art exhibition titled “Homebody” that will take place the upcoming Sunday, September 10th, 2023. Curated by head of Soft Systems, artist, collaborator and friend Marteen (@b0tnet.exe).
“Homebody explores the notion of what it means to have a home when one's life is characterized by impermanence. The exhibition reflects on the absence of a fixed physical space that holds memories, the longing for roots, and the implications of this on one's identity.”
If you love to support the local art scene please join us. Enjoy art, community, and say hi to 22+ Chicago-based artists!
Meet us @ Soft Systems (S California Ave & W 16th St, Chicago, IL 60608) Sunday, Sep 10th, from 4-9pm. Totally free. All are welcomed.
