STATE OF BEING explores the interpretations of the word BEING as a concept through three dimensional sculptural works of art by Hudson Valley sculptors; curated by Gülnar Babayeva. How do you understand the concept of BEING? Is it a state of mind or a state of existence? Is it a verb? Or is it a noun? What does it mean to be a human being? Is the Universe an all encapsulating self-aware being? These questions are open ended, and the exhibition attempts to contemplate answers to some of them through the curated selection of sculptural works.
