Between buildings as between stars explores the intersections between the known tangibility of material worlds and spaces that are unknown, mysterious, fictitious, or speculative.

Drawing on the popular modern paraphrase, ‘as above, so below’, from the medieval Hermetic text of the Emerald Tablet, this exhibition delves into the human desire to uncover meaning and understanding, in physical spaces of personal and collective experience, as well as spaces that are out of reach or yet to be revealed.

This exhibition acts as a meditation on notions of wonder, alluding to material and imagined forces of the body, alchemy, science, the occult, cosmology, technology and art history. Together, the artists explore realms of uncharted territory and those that echo familiarities and imaginaries of the everyday.
