▫️What layers of memory remain inscribed in place?
▫️Where does locality begin to reform itself?
▫️Who speaks through the fault lines?

The exhibition begins at the site of ruptureβ€”where traces accumulate, identities overlap, and meanings slip through fractured ground. Here, locality is not fixed geography but layered terrain: eroded, displaced, and recomposed.

Rather than restoring place as origin, the participating artists engage in acts of recompositionβ€”through sensation, memory, language, and material. In their work, rupture no longer signals collapse but becomes a generative frontier.
