Using a wide range of visual languages, these young artists explore topics important to their generation: the transformation of home and family ties, representations of the body and gender, and the co-existence of multiple and shifting identities. Their work reflects a pressing need for representation and a desire to tell their own story in a constantly changing world.
The exhibition showcases powerful personal narratives as well as a vibrant collective energy. It reveals an interweaving of experiences, cultures and contexts in which the personal is political. Gen Z: Shaping a New Gaze offers an insight into the concerns of a generation that both challenges and seeks its place in the world.
