Touching Transcendence, new Influences.
December in Tokyo
It's been some time since our last newsletter, and there have been many exciting developments.
We recently wrapped up another open call, "Touching Transcendence" where we invited artists to explore the relationship between the divine and gesture through their artworks.
In addition, this newsletter marks the release of the last three "Influences," announcing the conclusion of the project in its current iteration.
This September in Italy, we encountered some challenges with the planned location for the "Touching Transcendence" exhibition. However we were lucky enough and we secured an alternative venue at UltraSuperNew Gallery, located in the heart of Harajuku, Tokyo.
We are happy to share all the details with you.

Influences: Closing the Chapter on a Collaborative Journey
In this exhibition, "Influences" showcases the final three issues of the Zerofeedback publication. Inspired by the surrealist "exquisite corpse" game, it features collaborative artistic exchanges between photographers.
Highlights include mixed media explorations of Japan by Alex Harrison and Thomas Knott, symbolic color interplay by Stéphanie Pineau & Sohei Nakanishi, and a unique intertwining of memories by John Sypal & Giovanni Pascarella.
During the opening party, a special talk by Sypal and Pascarella delves into these creative dialogues.
The exhibition not only celebrates the culmination of these thematic explorations but also offers other editions for sale, inviting deeper engagement with the project.
Touching Transcendence: Exploring the Hand's Spiritual Symbolism
"Touching Transcendence" delves into the metaphorical significance of the hand as a conduit between the divine and humanity. It examines the hand's role in nonverbal communication, bridging spirituality and reality. This exhibition explores how the hand, a powerful symbol in various cultures and religions, represents divine presence in art.
Featuring works from 22 artists, the show presents a collaborative journey through the transformative and spiritual aspects of the hand, its gestures, and the divine-human relationship.
