Calligraphic reflections on belonging and resiliense

Inner Landscapes
Anna Moses

Inner Landscapes exhibition presents a collection of abstract landscapes that explore inner listening, emotional resilience, and the subtle moments where transformation begins. The works do not depict literal places, but rather emotional and psychological spaces—quiet horizons shaped by memory, feeling, and intuition. Through layered textures, softened forms, and restrained palettes accented with gold, the paintings invite viewers to slow down and reconnect with their inner voice.

While working on the series Anna Moses passed during different inner states, shifting between stillness and intensity, darkness and emerging light. Her inner shift was transferred to the landscapes as traces of a gentle journey of change. 

Themes of courage, healing, connection, love and renewal unfold across the works, from moments of deep introspection to a sense of calm acceptance. These paintings don’t demand interpretation - instead, they offer space to feel, and to reflect. Inner Landscapes form a meditative environment where silence speaks, and where transformation is found not in sudden clarity, but in quiet, considered movement forward.

The exhibition is part of the Month of Ukrainian Art in Medway, a series of exhibitions of Ukrainian artists organised by the IDENTITY Community, running from March 5th to April 7th at Halpern Pop Rochester and The Halpern Gallery Chatham.

Unity of the Sincere
Viacheslav Malyna Solo Exhibition

Unity of the Sincere is a solo exhibition of Ukrainian artist Viacheslav Malyna, who has become a soldier during the large-scale invasion and is currently at the frontline. 

The central part of the exhibition is dedicated to the artworks from Viacheslav’s series from 2018-2022 Unity of the Sincere that shows the proud and at the same time delicately elegant aesthetics of the prickly herb, as a metaphorical image of people or societies capable of resistance and defending their own space. "Beauty that harmoniously maintains the boundaries of responsibility and the level of openness for interaction remains in bloom longer."

Viacheslav’s artistic dialogue with the world is based on a detached yet deeply engaged view of simple things that exist in a subtle space on the boundary between TOUCHES OF MEMORY and DREAMS. These two are inseparably connected and amplify one another. This is about looking aside — as a way of embodying a desire for a certain solitude that occasionally arises in every person, in order to preserve one’s inner spark.

To realize these ideas, he works with various materials that are most suitable and accessible, yet it is acrylic painting that most often allows me to convey the precise emotional state I seek to express.

VESSELS OF MEMORY
Gledys Ibarra

Venezuelan artist Gledys Ibarra presents her first solo exhibition in the United Kingdom with Vessels of Memory, a series of recent paintings exploring memory and the recurring motif of the vessel. The works emerged gradually in her studio, evolving from quiet, introspective compositions to a broader exploration of form, scale, and colour. Across the series, some paintings are restrained and contemplative, while others are more expressive, reflecting the range of her engagement with memory and material.

The exhibition is part of Ibarra’s sustained studio practice, developed alongside her career as an actress. Alongside her exhibitions in Venezuela, including Casa 22 Gallery, El Hatillo, Caracas, she has participated in cultural initiatives such as the Latin American Awards by LA United, London, in collaboration with Latin American House, where her works were presented and auctioned.
