Colloquy

We welcome you to this vaguely hyper-personal, potentially cringy yet profoundly sincere, evocatively sexy and aesthetically juicy art event we are throwing for 12 hours later this month. It will be thought provoking and make you feel many feels.
~
Spanning multiple floors of the venue, viewers are free to wander through a rich interior world, abstracted into music, sounds, images, literature, and scents*. A reflection on our relationship as a microcosm of Love more broadly, we invite you to listen, observe, enjoy, and reflect on this long-form Colloquy at your most languid leisure.
~
Colloquy is in part a celebration of an anniversary, sharing an artistic interpretation of our relationship.
~
We hope that this environment will shed some light into the vast depths of the fantasies, realities, and Beauty that romantic union can create, and hope that others can relate to the diverse intricacies, moments of domestic bliss, personal crises, and cosmic import of intimate relationships.
