Concepts of Sangha
"Sangha" (संघ) originally referred to a gathering of people for the exchange of true knowledge and wisdom. "I-Transcendence Sanghaf" is a cross-domain collaborative exhibition by a group of new-generation media artists from Taiwan that took place online during the 2021 Burning Man festival. During the Ghost Month and Burning Man festival period, we constructed a virtual shrine and organized an online electronic music ritual to pray for the world during the pandemic and to offer participants an experience of inner healing and spiritual elevation.
At this juncture of the turning point between the old and new era, during the Earth's birthing period, the priests of the past have transformed into contemporary technology artists and electronic musicians, returning to this place once again for the deepest love. Our audio-visual live art scene is our new shrine, summoning all star children who are ready to ascend and enter higher dimensions to awaken and come home.
Through "I-Transcendence Sangha," we break free from the constraints of old systems and sectarian systems, reaching directly to the root of divinity, demonstrating the most inspiring themes of the present through Live Art. If you are a DJ/Producer, Live House/Art Gallery owner, Technology/Sound Artist interested in our artistic project and have a consciousness for spiritual forefront, please feel free to contact us for exhibition collaboration.
