Existing is Political explores the notion that simply “being”—existing in one’s body, culture, gender, or identity—carries political weight and significance. In an era marked by a two-party system with sharply defined platforms, this exhibition examines how the principles equality and justice for all fit into contemporary society. By showcasing diverse voices and perspectives, Existing is Political aims to inspire dialogue and foster a deeper understanding of existence as a political act in order to inspire action towards a genuinely inclusive society
