Press Release: Fred Fleisher Cosmic Projects presents Day Trippin', which brings together a vibrant mix of 16 artists, each offering a window into a unique moment in time. These moments pull us inward, spark reflection, and then expand outward - opening up new ways of seeing and feeling. A moment becomes a day, and the day keeps unfolding as we move through it.
The works in this exhibition explore our sense of separateness - a deeply human experience. Yet whether we zoom in or step back, something more connected, even cosmic, begins to reveal itself.
As the Shvetashvatara Upanishad reminds us: "The individual self goes round and round ... believing itself to be a separate creature ... until it sees its identity with the Lord of Love and attains immortality in the indivisible whole."
