About Work In Progress of TWS
TWS has been conducting a variety of programs designed to support young creators, including TWS-Emerging, open calls for exhibition proposals, hook-ups with universities, etc.
A new program focusing on and exhibiting the creation process of artworks was just added to the lineup. The purpose of this program is to locate new artistic potential in the shared process of repeated dialogue and exchange between artists and a variety of individuals they meet along the way. It will at once generate opportunities for a large number of people to get in direct touch with the refreshingly prismatic sensibilities of artists.

Artist Statement
If The Universe is at Anytime What You Say It Is...Then Say It ー Erick Pereira
The concept of this sculpture is that the moon circles the space with power provided by the sun. This project represents an attempt to avoid a double bind. The sculpture as model for a selfperpetuating body provided that the conditional necessities are met, the model can neither agree or disagree with its condition, it rises and sets with the sun. Unlike the usual no-win situation, there is difficulty defining the exact nature of the paradoxical situation in which it is. Contradictions may not be immediately evident, but only become so when a prior context is considered. Typically, a demand is imposed upon the subject by an external force, but the demand itself is inherently impossible to fulfill, because some broader context forbids it. This model is a controlled environment, a Double-Blind/Double-Bind, an ongoing experiment in an attempt to exist within a closed-circuit of its own balanced anarchy.
Utopia...why?
