Photographic and painterly expressions are influenced by a wide range of external factors. Structurally, they embody the concepts of intentionality and randomness. Photographic expression is characterized by the randomness of capturing everything through the lens with light. On the other hand, painterly expression heavily reflects the artist's intentionality. The artist constructs the world from scratch on a support-like canvas. This contrast has inspired diverse forms of expression, with each medium aspiring to its uniqueness and crossing boundaries.

This exhibition, building on these ideas, explores the existing definitions of intentionality and randomness in each medium. Through questioning and exploring these expressive techniques, the participating artists propose new perspectives, sometimes with a sense of inquiry.

Furthermore, for this exhibition, each member created a piece inspired by the keyword "Ripple." From the stage of ideation, the exhibition members engaged in dialogue, expanding and deepening ideas that eventually interconnected. This process mirrors the principle of overlapping waves, maintaining individuality while striving for significant impact within the confines of the exhibition space.
