Deep Blue is a group exhibition that explores questions of identity, memory and ecology. The artists evoke spiritual and political symbolisms, metaphysical reflections and explore questions around non-Western spirituality and knowledge systems. As a premise for transformative, regenerative and empathetic futures, this exhibition features re-interpretations of the past from a space of healing, addressing significant secular issues.

Coordination and curation by Hangar and Ci.CLO – Photography Platform @ci.cloplataforma and the city of Porto. It will take part in the exhibition program of the Porto Photography Biennial in 2023.

Structure financed by the Portuguese Republic – Culture / Directorate-General of Arts @dgartes
