Delving into realizations of the pandemic and the new normal, "ReGeneration" aims to celebrate the resurgence or awakening of consciousness after a period of uncertainty while drawing inspiration from nature's rebirth after a prolonged winter. Every artwork on display represents the unique vision and interpretation of the world, with topics of resilience and hope while offering renewed perspectives on life and communal growth.
