Exhibition | HAVE FAITH

We live many lives in one lifetime. Spirit and faith keep us breathing and moving: they tell us to rebuild after breaking down. HAVE FAITH is an innovative solo exhibition inviting viewers on a journey into the depths of faith by exploring its intricate, layered connections to life, death, and personal power. Through a network of immersive soundscapes, interactive installations, reflective poetry, and symbolic visuals, this exhibition experience and its public programming evoke a sense of rebirth and spiritual awakening while reflecting on the past lives we carry within us.
