This exhibition reflects a personal season of transformation. After many years in a corporate career, painting became my way of exploring movement, change, and spiritual growth. Each canvas captures a moment in that journey—like stepping from the outside world into a place of quiet reflection. For me, creating these works felt like walking from outside into home.

This Is My Exodus

The Work of His Hands celebrates the beauty of creation and the transforming work of God in our lives. Like the Master Artist, we are continually being shaped through seasons of joy, struggle, growth, and renewal. This collection invites you to pause, reflect, and discover hope within each painting, while recognizing that every masterpiece—on canvas and in life—is ultimately the work of His hands.

Follow an emotional journey through a collection that reflects the human experience—from trials and transformation to hope, healing, and the courage to pursue the dreams placed within your heart. The Work of His Hands reminds us that beauty can emerge from brokenness, light can overcome darkness, and every season of life can become part of a greater masterpiece.

The Work of His Hands

Blue as a territory and behaviour. I work through gesso, modeling paste, and river sand collected from Serra da Estrela, portuguese mountain innerland, at the highest point of Continental Portugal at 1993m of altitude, allowing viscosity, grain, and absorbency to reshape the pigment’s, depth and tempo. Layering, scraping, and staining create a visible history—blue as sediment, atmosphere, and signal. This investigation is ultimately spatial. Blue alters how a room holds the body: it can expand perceived volume, slow attention, and change the sense of human presence— whether one feels anchored, exposed, calmed, or quietly confronted. I think of blue as a systemic context—where matter, light, distance, scale, architecture, and the viewer’s body form one continuous circuit. Ultimately, these works are designed for. real space. They reward close looking through texture and micro-contrast, while reading clearly from distance through stable fields and repeated movement.

Between Image & Surface

Between Image & Surface explores the space where photography becomes the starting point rather than the final image. Working from her own photographs, Marianne Breugelmans transforms recognizable scenes through layers of paint, collage and mixed media, creating works that move between observation and abstraction.

Rather than documenting reality, her process investigates how memory, material and perception reshape what we see. Fragments of the photographic image remain visible while painted surfaces, textures and layered interventions gradually introduce new narratives.

The exhibition invites visitors to slow down and experience the subtle dialogue between image and surface, representation and transformation. Each work unfolds gradually, revealing traces of both the original photograph and the artist's intuitive response to it.

Between Image & Surface

Film photography began as a fragile attempt to hold onto light, developed through early scientific curiosity in the 1800s. What started as experimentation slowly became a way of preserving time itself. Each advancement in film stock and camera design brought images closer to everyday life, making memory something physical.

For much of the 20th century, film became the way the world was seen and remembered. Its history is embedded in archives, newspapers, and personal albums, a collective visual memory built frame by frame, long before digital immediacy reshaped how images are made.

Today, film is still loved for its slower rhythm, material presence, and element of chance.

On Film

James Smith builds paintings the way cities build skylines, block by block, layer by layer. Across this collection of 25 works, thick impasto grids collide with sprayed ink, graphite, and charcoal, forming color fields that feel both architectural and combustible. Deep blues and purples anchor bursts of crimson, amber, and gold, while raw diagonal marks and scattered white splatter cut through the compositions like fault lines through rock.

Spanning 2024 to 2026, the series moves between tightly structured grids and looser, more painterly interventions, a body of work that treats color and texture as structural elements rather than decoration. Each piece captures a moment of tension between order and disruption, control and impulse.

Fault Lines & Fragments: The Geometric Abstractions

Colour is one of the most immediate ways we experience an image, yet it rarely stays simple. It is shaped by light, material, and the eye that meets it, often shifting in meaning the longer it is observed. What begins as a visual response can quickly become something more personal; tied to memory, emotion, and perception.

Colour remains unstable, always changing how it is read.

Since its earliest development, photography has included the self as subject. The camera was used not only to record surroundings, but to explore identity through experiment, necessity, and curiosity. Early self-portraits, made through mirrors and prolonged exposure, placed it within the foundations of the medium.

A portrait is not only descriptive, but a record of a moment before the camera. A self-portrait preserves that moment, and the person as they were in that second.

El nieto de El Persia es realmente Roberto Abajo, quien lleva por segundo apellido un
no tan usual Brázquez, el verdadero apellido de su abuelo materno, desconocedor éste
del dialogo con la pintura entablado en la actualidad por su nieto pequeño. De raíces
onubenses, serranas y mineras, tierras donde el arte siempre anidó. Aquella huella
bajo el mote El Persia, que acuñó en 1927, cobra hoy valor por quien se plantea el arte
con la máxima honestidad rememorando la figura de su abuelo. Un salto en el tiempo
generacional para sentir la nobleza y plasticidad de quien trata la expresión interior
manifestada con sencillez a través del color.

Emotions is a curated collection of photographic works during 2023-2026 by Harri Perunka. The artworks in the collection deal with the phenomena and emotions of human life in a broad sense. In the works, the mood is built not only by the composition of the subject, but also by the overall texture, color scheme, and lighting. In most of

La lettura è un gesto semplice, che ha bisogno di tempo per permettere al lettore di entrare in contatto con parole che diventano pensieri, immagini, mondi interiori.
Ma nella Digital Age anche il tempo dedicato a leggere viene spesso ridotto a un numero. E così su moltissime piattaforme digitali, ma anche – purtroppo – qualche periodico su carta, viene inserito all’inizio di ogni post l’indicatore del “tempo di lettura”.
Il tempo della lettura, in realtà, non si misura. Si espande. Si dilata. A volte scorre veloce, altre si sospende. È un tempo personale, intimo, impossibile da standardizzare.
Pertanto, come per un buon libro, prendetevi tutto il tempo che desiderate per guardare questa serie fotografica, nata dall’idea che leggere significhi uscire dal ritmo del mondo per entrare in uno spazio tutto proprio. I soggetti ritratti sono immersi nelle loro pagine, assorti a tal punto da dimenticare ciò che li circonda. Il tempo di lettura, per loro, diventa una dimensione interiore.

Exposition Internationale

Landscape photography is not only concerned with what is visible, but with how space is experienced through scale and distance. It can evoke calm or discomfort, openness or separation, without explanation. In this ambiguity, framing and light guide perception in subtle but shifting ways, influencing how depth, distance, and presence are read within the frame. Still images hold time in suspension, extending a single moment so it can be absorbed with greater attention, allowing landscape to be felt and encountered as something unfolding through seeing itself.
