Space. We need space for collective remembrance and healing. This exhibition builds for us an environ-
ment for contemplation. The artist taps on the potential of ritual as an activity that shows “opposition to a
problematic social structure.[1]” Acting as both artist and priest, Dy alternates his roles for a transforma-
tive process therefore using art not just as a response or substitute, but pushes it towards being a spiritual
experience to blur the boundaries of the two. Our immersion to the plotted symbols challenges us to
transform ourselves to move our society away from oppressive conditions.
