Our ancestors created myths in quest of the origin and meaning of life, and stories of gods originates from and reflects that of human beings. Myths were created for men. Likewise, cinema is perhaps the modern vehicle for myths, explaining and inspiring our quest for where life comes from and what life means. But with science and technology ripping off the mysteries of life in future, what will myths become? Acrylic Dreams, with works by four artists, creates a dream-like realm that explore, with different sensibilities and aesthetics, what myth is in this future – a future in which myth are for humans as much as they are for other products of science and technology like machines, computers, AI, and so forth.
