Synopsis
The Art Picnic: An Act of Creation transforms INSTINC into a dynamic, living exhibition where making art becomes the show. Across five different days, artists will create their works on-site, inviting audiences to witness the process and exchange ideas. This immersive show celebrates creativity as a communal act, blurring the line between studio and gallery. As time passes, the artists' work will grow on the walls, transforming the space into a collective, ever-evolving installation.
Visitors are invited to walk in and experience the exhibition in a casual, picnic-like atmosphere across all six days. Artists will be creating live on-site, with their completed works displayed on the walls until the exhibition closes on 31 Jan. The space will feature grass patches, snacks, and live music, encouraging audiences to linger, interact, and enjoy the process of art-making in a vibrant communal setting.
