Experience is not what happens to us; it is what we do with what happens to us. The journey from birth to death can be described as a chain of different events. Not always welcome, not always predictable. And it's precisely how we react to them that defines who we are.

The same circumstances can either break us or help us ascend to a new level. This process can be daunting and painful. This exhibition is intended to help people look at their inner processes from an external perspective. To show that on this path, they are not alone. And at the very least, all the artists in this exhibition are ready to share this with the audience.

Many events in our lives are expected and predictable. Birth, daycare or school, career choices, stepping into independent life. But each of these is that very transition to a new level—only if we realize it ourselves and choose an active role in taking these steps.

Birth is the moment when we are thrust into the world. We cry, we are scared, but we learn to breathe and calm down as we inhale. First steps and words mark the beginning of our assimilation into it. Falling and getting up, we try to learn to walk. Trying to speak, we attempt to articulate our desires and dislikes not through crying and tears.

Daycare and school are our first contacts with a society we didn't choose, and the beginning of finding ourselves in it. Some find friends there, while others may stutter. Choosing a career is defining the role we will play in this society, temporarily or for a lifetime, depending on internal aspirations and resources. Stepping into independent life means taking full responsibility for ourselves, our present, and our future.

And beyond that, there are even more milestones, each of which we pass and perceive differently. Marriage, the birth of children, the loss of parents, changing jobs or careers, moving to a new country, or even a different part of the world. We move from level to level, sometimes intentionally, sometimes out of necessity. And on this path, we are constantly changing.

This exhibition is a vast portal of transition. A place where we share our personal experiences of moving to new levels in our lives. Our emotions, fears, experiences, and infatuations. And through them, we come to understand ourselves and our place in the world.
