HERE Presents: THANK GOD WE DON’T KNOW WHAT WE LOOK LIKE

May 11 - June 30, 2023 - 2-7pm

“We live in an infinitely complicated world and trying to make sense of it all is an impossible task. There is comfort in the objects we interact with every day, and the sacred routines that keep us sane. Inanimate objects don’t think—they just exist. In a divine way, they are above the concerns of us humans. Unlike things, people have souls, and we need to worry about keeping ourselves healthy and happy. We need to believe that the future won’t be so terrible. We create faith, even if it’s a secret. This show focuses on the under-appreciated world directly in front of us. The objects in this show are made by human beings with unique sources of faith. Each piece represents the thoughts and beliefs of the person who made it—perfect objects made by imperfect people.”
