Hope is a passion,
Powerful and positive,
the saddest of all passions.
A key to the future,
and wherever you go, at all times,
The future is a door that you carry on your back.

A Door On Your Back celebrates community and the will to continue working to establish ideas that help shape reality.

How do we make changes in times taken by rapid transformation, detachment from reality, climate change and the rise of far-right leaning politics around the world? Dreaming can easily be confused with naïveté or delusion in times like this. This show celebrates the power of these dreams and delusions against all odds, turning hope into an endearing and essential countercultural act.

This is the second show under the umbrella of sel.VA - Various Artists, a group show that happens once a year and in which all artists are somehow involved with music, whether by making it or by being an active member of a music scene, creating graphics for bands, music videos, putting out records or working in any of the possible intersections between the sound and visual practices.
