<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nBeyond the faculties of the senses lies an enigmatic pool of consciousness, ever rippling. The earth\u2014our most connective tissue\u2014speaks to us through these ripples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the heart of Sensing Earth Space is Ben Khan\u2019s Bubble Project<\/strong>, a lightweight, inflatable structure designed as a womb-like vessel that has been featured at the London Festival of Architecture, Goldsmiths, and the Architectural Association. Like the body itself, the BubbleSurrounding the Bubble are the visceral works of Arran Gregory, who sculpts with raw materials such as Bali earth soil, clay, and natural pigments. Gregory\u2019s work transforms the gallery into an evolving open studio where visitors are invited to touch, mold, and shape the soil, forging new expressions of connection and transformation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The exhibition also features Gregory\u2019s Earth Body series, created across Finland, Borneo, and Bali, alongside a series of short films directed by Gregory and Alexander Ingham Brooke capturing his engagement with raw materials and the landscapes that inspired them. These films, including Blue Entity (Earth Body IV), document Gregory\u2019s collaborations with local artists in Payangan, Bali, and his experiments with natural indigo and clay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
<\/span>A Dialogue with Andra Matin\u2019s \"Proses\" Exhibition<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nFollowing Sensing Earth Space, Titik Dua will present Andra Matin\u2019s \"Proses\"<\/strong>, opening February 7 and book launching event \u201cSipping Stories: Tropicality\u201d <\/strong>on February 8<\/strong>. Andra Matin\u2019s exploration of tropical architecture reflects a deep commitment to creating sustainable, contextually responsive spaces. Together, these exhibitions form a cohesive narrative about humanity\u2019s evolving relationship with the natural world, architecture, and creativity. \u201cWe invite every guest to sense and connect with the earth materials surrounding us,\u201d shares Fonny, General Manager of Titik Dua. \u201cThrough these tactile and sensory experiences, we hope to inspire deeper reflections on our bond with the natural world, fostering a collective consciousness about our place within it.\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>A Multi-Sensory, Evolving Space<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nOver the course of the week, Sensing Earth Space transforms into an evolving space shaped by the contributions of visitors and local artists. Through experimental dance, sound, and spoken word performances, the installation becomes a living dialogue of creativity and community. A ripple in the distance of consciousness stirs new ways of sensing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
