About The Event
-SANCTUS -
holy, sacred, consecrated, saint, pius, hallowed, saintly, chaste, venerable
an art project by Solly Smook
With Sanctus I take the opportunity to experiment and play with dogma as subject matter. In the pejorative sense, dogma refers to enforced decisions applied to some strong belief and is often used to refer to matters related to religion, but is not limited to theistic attitudes alone. For the first time, using a variety of mediums in one exhibition, I regard Sanctus more as an art project without fully discarding my usual technique and subject matter. This project invites the viewer to sanctus. Within or without the borders of dogma.
