Unplugged, collective exhibition of international artists, derives its name from acoustic musical performance. Artists were approached to create a project with minimum consumption of fossil fuels for production and transport. We strive to explore the motive of stepping out of the comfort zone, limited resources, while maintaining the professionalism of institutional representation. We want to bring to the forefront the qualities we frequently overlook because of the ease of machine and automated production. An accent on daylight and physical experience when encountering art are also a themes.
