Curator's Statement:

Mindfulness is the basic human ability to be fully present, aware of where we are and what we're doing and not overly reactive or overwhelmed by what’s going on around us. This exhibition will strive to enlighten and educate the public on mindfulness, which is a cornerstone of mental and physical health for many. It is a quality that every human being can possess and utilize through practice.

The narratives behind each work and every artist will tell a story of their journey and inspire the viewers. Artists are encouraged to present a narrative of any mindful and/or spiritual paths that may be represented in their works of art. As a result, visitors may be inspired to embark on their own spiritual/awakened and more healthful paths. Visitors will be inspired to evaluate their breathing styles through more consciously and deeply feeling more relaxed and truly enlightened via the artworks and information presented on mindfulness & being fully present.
