ADI’s SPELLING (From A – Z)

ADI's SPELLINGAlphabet in our life.

Maybe it is funny if we only see the outline of this exhibition’s concept, Adi presents, as we re-member our first experiences reading the alphabet. When we were children, our teacher taught us one by one – so we could spell it right.

A-Z is a magnificent combination of “situations happen” all over the world, and which are packed in this exhibition. What I see is, that this is a really “knock knock” to our heart, our mind, our eyes –
