ABOUT THE EXHIBITION
In adapting a term used to describe the psychic spies, or remote viewers, hired by the CIA in the 1960s, this exhibition begins with a reference to the limitations of technology and the power of creative minds. The notion of remote viewers as intuitive mappers of space and experiences is present in the work by eight artists featured in the exhibition.

These contemporary artists share a goal—to wrestle the chaos and information overload of our daily lives into a highly personal narrative of invented worlds. In contrast to artists of the recent past, these artists absorb the data of everyday life into their personal maps. They draw on systems such as science, technology, religion, even personal mythologies, and incorporate them into a subjective world that exists somewhere between abstraction and representation.
