ARION AUSTIN-CROWE

PROJECT ROOM

Exhibition dates : 14 - 26 July 2026
Opening reception : Wed 15 July 2026, 6:00 - 8:30pm

The works on display explore the themes of imagination, aging, childhood and memory. Austin-Crowe’s work focuses more on external, more impersonal perceptions of people and the human condition more so than being a projection of one’s internal state onto their environment.

The works explore how much of the human experience is lived through imagination over body, and how reality is experienced through our own personal lens, be it our memories, our projections of future possibilities or the ruminations of the past. The works highlight the subjectivity of lived and future experience, placing an emphasis on the nature of the mind’s eye in its role in subconsciously dictating our actions.

The exhibition serves as a conversation between the increasing amount of contemplation on how the past or our childhoods could be different, we do, in contrast to the childhood practice of daydreaming of the future we do in a different amount, and how similar yet opposing said activities are, yet they are inseparable from one another.
