Exhibition Text:

Inspired by the dead letter office—a place where undeliverable letters and packages accumulate—the exhibition brings together works imagined as messages that never arrived: letters sent to the wrong address, sealed confessions, lost stories, and packages waiting to be opened. The exhibition considers communication as a space of uncertainty: between expression and recognition, presence and absence, sending and receiving. Bringing together artists through a shared A3 mailing format, the gallery becomes a temporary dead letter office: a space for suspended messages, unreachable destinations, and things left in transit.
