If Only For a Moment, is an exhibition that reveals how moments serve as the threads that weave together our shared human experience. Unified by time, our lives are shaped by chapters, fragments, and fleeting instances. It is in these boundaries that profound discoveries begin, and where lessons find closure. Moments hold space for change, interpersonal bonds, and are a collection of stories that breathe life into one’s identity. 

This exhibition brings together the diverse voices of the resident artists within the Zhou B Art Center KC. With a wide array of artistic practices and backgrounds, the artists present works that reflect on the nature of time, the persistence of memory, and the significance of personal and collective histories. Each piece invites viewers to consider how their own experiences echo through time, shaping identities, relationships, and understandings of the world.

The exhibition seeks to slow down the passage of time and invites viewers to find meaning in the subtle, the still, and the unseen. If Only for A Moment encourages contemplation on how every moment — no matter how brief or seemingly insignificant — can engage an opportunity for connection and gratitude. It asks: What stories do we uncover when we give ourselves permission to pause, even if only for a moment?
