The Gallery 2025
This year’s theme, Temporality: Contours of the Present, delves into time’s fluid and layered nature—how it ebbs and flows, silently shaping our lives. Set within the blank canvas of the Power Mac Center Spotlight Blackbox Theater, the space was reimagined into a dynamic reflection of time’s passage.
A Curated Collective of Multidisciplinary Artists
This year's edition showcases a selection of carefully chosen artists from various disciplines—visual art, sound design, and movement—each providing a distinct perspective on the fluid nature of time.

Pulse of Desire

slows time to reveal the resilience in every rise and fall, exploring the interplay of stillness and impact. In falling, there is both breaking and softening, surrender and transformation. Through movement and sound, ease becomes precision, and the present becomes all we have. -

HLANPTAS
captures the ever-shifting pursuit of a shared dream—where ambition collides, reshapes, and propels those who chase it. The journey is never linear; it unfolds in phases. As time stretches and momentum shifts, the climb transforms not just the destination, but the dreamers themselves.

Between Fading and Becoming
delves into the fragile spaces where connection and solitude meet. In fleeting encounters, we reach, hesitate, and let go, moving in passing as if caught between worlds. What remains is the unseen residue of these moments, shaping us in ways we may never fully understand.
