Imants Tillers - Metaphysical Journey: Exhibition video Bett Gallery 14 February - 8 March 2026

What is ‘metaphysics’? According to the Oxford dictionary – ‘metaphysics’ is “that branch of philosophy that deals with the first principles of things including such concepts as being, substance, essence, time, space, cause and identity: theoretical philosophy as the ultimate science of being and knowing.

Moreover, the adjective ‘metaphysical’ has additional connotations – it can also be something “excessively subtle or abstract”, “not empirically verifiable” – something “immaterial, incorporeal, supersensible, supernatural”. So what is a ‘metaphysical journey’? The question is in the room. Hello out there, I wonder are you looking curious? Or?
