SYNOPSIS
Figuring a Scene moves away from how art history has defined the logic of exhibitions, arguing that exhibitions have intrinsic significance beyond external factors like history or society. It asserts that emotions, imagination, and sensory experiences play crucial roles in understanding art and inevitably defining how we make sense of history or society. The exhibition probes the process of creating art and how different materials gain significance within specific settings, resembling the unfolding of a narrative or drama.
