Genset
Gajah Gallery proudly presents a major cross-generational group exhibition featuring the works of 20 artists from across Southeast Asia. The exhibition titled 鈥楪ENSET鈥�, the abbreviation for 鈥榞enerator set鈥� which converts power into energy, casts light on new trajectories in Southeast Asian art, and the relationships between mentor and mentee artists, resulting in the exchange of knowledge and the expansion of practice.
From the Latin generare or generat, meaning create or created, the exhibition鈥檚 concept relates and reverbs in all artists 鈥� to produce; to perform; to bring about; to originate; to make what has not been done before. Throughout history, art has always taken part in discussions of social, political and ecological issues, highlighting its power to move hearts, and rouse to action. GENSET aims to rediscover what sparks artists and their desire to create, and how one鈥檚 art can resonate with and continue to inspire future generations.
Looking ahead, with the start of the New Year, it provides the ideal setting in sparking discussion on contemporary inspiration and the evolution of practice 鈥� asking the question: How are artists from Southeast Asia inspired, and how do they inspire in turn?
