Creating Magic During a Children's Photo Session

In this group of artists, intimacy, memory and abstraction intersect in different methods, but all share a level of sensitivity to the fleeting: the neglected image, the half-remembered place, the unstable boundary between what we see and what we feel. Together, they form a quiet but insistent meditation on how suggesting accumulates in common life.

Taken together, rendered in her unique painterly design, these retellings of easily-forgotten minutes show how an ordinary life, when analyzed from a particular viewpoint, begins to radiate a palpable sense of significance.Rosemary Burn Bowl of cherries, 2025 Mona Sultan's photocollages describe the fragmentary nature of memory and significance, calling photographic reality into question by breaking down, recontextualising and duplicating images. Balancing systematic precision with a distinctly human, necessarily imperfect visual perceptiveness, his paintings are lighthearted abstractions for the digital age.Luke Rudolf Fizzog 4, 2025 Jo Berry's airbrushed paintings offer physical types to images that we generally see via a screen andrapidly forget, such as stock photographs and ReCAPTCHAs. To me, her distinct language hazy, distorted, discreetly unsettling reflects the alienation and dissociation fundamental in a world filled with imagery that seems to appear and disappear ever-more quickly. A shadow, a handstand, a sheer curtain draped over a houseplant: by photographing such things, he offers them a second life in which they end up being long-term. Emile Kees Handstand, 2023 Jo Hummel's minimalist abstractions have a specific ahistorical quality; they connect numerous histories of product experimentation and production from all over the world within an unique visual language. They situate the audience within landscapes that feel unlimited with a low mist hanging over the horizon. Though unfamiliar, these images are deeply peaceful, welcoming you to savor the basic pleasures of a perpetually twilit, pastoral world.Llus-Carles Peric Cap a La Calma, 2014 The scenes that Bianca MacCall paints a train window showing the carriage's interior over the passing landscape; a barely-visible car concealed by an ochre-yellow curtain appear deliberately mystical. They make me think about the simultaneous absurdity and charm of the world in front of me, considering familiar scenes through an unknown lens. Bianca MacCall Perpetual Motion, 2023 Henry Ward's painting practice is ever-shifting. In fact, if you stand in front of one of his paintings for enough time, you might see it change in real time. The unsettled, unforeseeable nature of his work is what makes me keep going back to it.Henry Ward Bethany III, 2023.
