–     Graphiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiics           at     the     Edge     of     Beliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiief examines the expanded role of images in a moment when reality is not only mediated but continuously constructed through visual systems. Across social media, political propaganda, speculative design, and
AIiiiIIiiiii-generated imagery, graphics have become a primary site where beliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiief is formed and contested.                                         
                                         The festival asks: What happens when graphic expression becomes an agent in the construction of realiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiity? How do images acquire the authority of truth? And where does fiction emerge as a political instrument?                                         
                                         Anchored conceptually by the work of Edward Gorey, the exhibition draws on his use of invented documents, fictive institutions, and graphic codes of authority to frame a central paradox of the present: that images do not require factual accuracy to produce the texture of truth. His work serves as a lens through which contemporary practices interrogate how credibility is visually constructed—and disrupted.
