About the Exhibition

Meshahara is a Solana-powered immersive group exhibition at REX KL. The exhibition frames blockchain not as financial speculation, but as shared cultural infrastructure: a decentralised commons where artists from Southeast Asia and the world circulate work, maintain authorship, and collaborate across borders without losing their identity.

Visitors don't scroll past the works — they inhabit them. The main arena at REX KL is transformed into an environment of architectural-scale projection.

Curatorial Theme

The exhibition takes its name from the Arabic root meshahara — to make public, to witness, to be seen. Many Roots, One Ledger asks: what does it mean to share infrastructure without surrendering identity? Artists are invited to explore:

• Authorship and ownership in an era of decentralised networks
• Cultural identity across borders — local roots, global circulation
• Coexistence — how different voices occupy shared space without erasure
• The politics of visibility — who gets seen, and on whose terms
• Nature and network — organic systems as metaphors for distributed infrastructure

Format & Technical Context

Selected works will be presented as large-scale projection across the main arena at REX KL. Works should be submitted as video files (ideally 16:9 or 4:3, minimum 1080p) or as generative pieces with technical specifications.
