Permanent exhibitions

Massless Amorphous Sculpture

One of the new installations that has been introduced is Massless Amorphous Sculpture — a floating sea of bubbles that drifts in the middle of the space. Even if you try to touch the soap bubble-like sculpture, it instantly repairs itself.

Massless Suns and Dark Suns

There’s also Massless Suns and Dark Suns, which questions how we perceive the world. Made up of countless spheres of light, this radiant installation doesn’t exist in the physical world — it’s a cognitive sculpture, with its materials being light, environment, body and perception.

Morphing Continuum

Morphing Continuum is a sculptural entity that draws its shape from the energy of its unique environment and the phenomena unfolding within it. Its individual elements differ in shape and size, yet together they create a unified existence — a living universe, a biocosmos.

Traces of Life

Finally, Traces of Life allows people to become at one with the art itself. As people move, traces of their existence linger for a while. The more people interact, the more the artwork transforms into a single, collective existence. It’s a symbolic display of how, without people, nothing exists — not even the art itself.
