"The Wild Deer wandering here and there
Keeps the human soul from care."
-William Blake

The art exhibition and related events are dedicated to the distance between you and me (between us). A very contemporary collective experience of a shifted meaning of distance. Although the physical or measurable distance can be easily perceived, the mental one has twisted, stretched, and shrunk. The show is about communication by caring for each other at the times of collective unrest and uncertainty.... Again, we emphasize the importance of the human connection by common experiences as regular hygiene of our mental health. In this case, the relationship between artistic engagement and the psychosocial and biological manifestations of that connection. More specifically, there is evidence that engagement with artistic activities, either as an observer of the creative efforts of others or as an initiator of one's own creative efforts, can enhance one's moods, emotions, and other psychological states, as well as have a salient impact on important physiological parameters.
