What does it mean to look, and how does our position determine what we are able to see and what remains hidden? This exhibition takes up these questions with each artist exploring what it is to have their own personal sightline.

Across the exhibition, the body emerges as a site of perception both as something that looks and something that is looked at. Seeing is presented not as a detached or neutral act, but as one shaped by movement, effort, and physical presence. Vision unfolds through fragments, interruptions, and shifts in scale, where what is revealed is always partial and contingent. Space is encountered emotionally as much as visually, shaped by proximity, memory, and the limits of access.

These works explore the tension between exposure and concealment, safety and vulnerability, control and uncertainty. The act of looking is inseparable from being seen, producing moments of discomfort, intimacy, and quiet unease. Memory, material, and inner states blur distinctions between past and present, surface and depth, observation and feeling. Sightlines invites viewers to become aware of their own embodied position within these exchanges, acknowledging perception as a relational process shaped by power, intimacy, and the conditions under which we see and are seen.
