A Friend of a Friend of a Friend stands as a testament to the transformative power of embracing otherness.
Conceived as both a starting point and an internalized attitude, otherness has influenced every facet of the
exhibition—from the artists to the curator, from the spatial composition to the process of curation. This
exhibition thrives on trust, intimacy, tolerance, and a sincere curiosity for the other.
The works, emerging from this shared commitment to otherness, engage in a fluid dialogue with one
another. They overlap, merge, and cohabit, weaving a dynamic and constantly shifting narrative.
Unpredictable as always, otherness has entered the space alongside you—arm in arm.
