Pandora\u2019s Box<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The story of Pandora\u2019s Box is an eternal metaphor for the human experience and its final element \u2013 Hope, feels more relevant than ever in today\u2019s world. In the myth, Pandora releases suffering and chaos into the world, this myth continues to mirror our modern struggles: climate change, political unrest, inequality and global crises. Yet just as in the ancient tale, hope remains. Artists were given free rein to interpret this theme and as always the results are often surprising in their creative expression. Christine Wynyard\u2019s enigmatic \u201cWhat\u2019s next II\u201d is open to subjective interpretation by the viewer, as all artworks are. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
