Ways to Protect Family Heritage With Museum Prints

In this group of artists, intimacy, memory and abstraction intersect in various methods, however all share a level of sensitivity to the short lived: the neglected image, the half-remembered location, the unstable limit between what we see and what we feel. Together, they form a quiet however insistent meditation on how meaning collects in normal life.

Taken together, rendered in her unique painterly style, these retellings of easily-forgotten moments demonstrate how an ordinary life, when analyzed from a particular point of view, 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 meaning, calling photographic reality into question by breaking down, recontextualising and duplicating images. Balancing organized accuracy with a clearly human, necessarily imperfect visual perceptiveness, his paintings are easy going abstractions for the digital age.Luke Rudolf Fizzog 4, 2025 Jo Berry's airbrushed paintings provide physical kinds to images that we generally see by means of a screen andrapidly forget, such as stock pictures and ReCAPTCHAs. To me, her distinctive language hazy, distorted, subtly upsetting reflects the alienation and dissociation inherent in a world saturated with images that seems to appear and disappear ever-more rapidly. A shadow, a handstand, a sheer curtain draped over a houseplant: by photographing such things, he provides them a 2nd life in which they end up being irreversible. Emile Kees Handstand, 2023 Jo Hummel's minimalist abstractions have a specific ahistorical quality; they connect numerous histories of material experimentation and creation from around the world within a special visual language. They position the audience within landscapes that feel unlimited with a low mist hanging over the horizon. Though unfamiliar, these images are deeply serene, inviting you to revel in the easy enjoyments of a perpetually twilit, pastoral world.Llus-Carles Peric Cap a La Calma, 2014 The scenes that Bianca MacCall paints a train window reflecting the carriage's interior over the passing landscape; a barely-visible vehicle concealed by an ochre-yellow drape appear deliberately strange. 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 Continuous Motion, 2023 Henry Ward's painting practice is ever-shifting. If you stand in front of one of his paintings for long enough, you may see it alter in real time. The unclear, unforeseeable nature of his work is what makes me keep going back to it.Henry Ward Bethany III, 2023.
