The fact that Western society has built large sections of its foundations on the quest for personal fulfillment and achievement maens that illusions to ecstasy are particularly rife in our society's marketing strategies. An exhibition was organized each week for three weeks, each exhibitions presenting a pair of artists, with each artist proposing a single work, installation or performance. The works presented in Ecstasy2x3 exploited and explored notions and states of ecstasy, particularly in relation to society's perceptions of it.
