All artists who participate in the exhibition work on paintings based on humans as an object, sense changes in society and space surrounding them, and express the time each passes in pictures. 

The eight artists reflected on the times and environment and expressed their artistic perspectives on the canvas, such as the results of examining the inner world of humans and their nature and the boundary between the imaginary world and reality.
