Ego Trip

Exhibition of the 2nd year students of MOME’s Visual Communications Faculty CD-Fű kultúrpince
october 6. 19.00

That version of the mapping of visualisation, in which the invisible or the hardly see through is realised in a visible model. The aim is the creation of a visual essence that helps understanding. Art is the steady utopia of self-reflexion, the gesture of self-cognition and self-correction by self-expression. Ego Trip is a visualisation experiment for the spiritual mapping of the ego. Self-mapping, self-measurement that might take the creator closer to understanding his/her own intellectual development.
