Beyond Destination is about journeying where the journeys made were both mental and geographic. In this exhibition, city nomads are caught up in a surreal adventure; a woman’s walk up a snowy mountain lead to startling encounters; a local take-away becomes the scene of brief chance meetings. Arrival at a fixed destination is never the object. Instead, the artists sought a creative way of living in flux, in the dynamic spaces between lands or cultures.
