In this group of artists, intimacy, memory and abstraction intersect in different ways, but all share a sensitivity to the short lived: the neglected image, the half-remembered place, the unstable limit in between what we see and what we feel. Together, they form a peaceful however insistent meditation on how suggesting collects in regular life.

Taken together, rendered in her distinct painterly design, these retellings of easily-forgotten moments demonstrate how a regular life, when analyzed from a particular viewpoint, starts to radiate a palpable sense of significance.Rosemary Burn Bowl of cherries, 2025 Mona Sultan's photocollages explain the fragmentary nature of memory and significance, calling photographic fact into question by breaking down, recontextualising and repeating images.

A shadow, a handstand, a sheer curtain draped over a houseplant: by photographing such things, he provides a second life in which they end up being long-term. Emile Kees Handstand, 2023 Jo Hummel's minimalist abstractions have a particular ahistorical quality; they connect multiple histories of material experimentation and production from worldwide within a distinct visual language.

They make me believe about the simultaneous absurdity and appeal of the world in front of me, considering familiar scenes through an unfamiliar lens. Bianca MacCall Perpetual 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 change in genuine time.
