  • The solstice marks such a threshold: a point of imminent transformation, where one state reaches its apex and yields to another. As a phenomenon defined by celestial motion, Solstice probes evolution not simply as a cosmic circumstance but as a bodily experience of time, observation, and perception.

    The exhibition brings together artists working in painting, sculpture, and mixed media, all of which share dynamism and responsiveness to duality. Bloom and decay exist side by side in this exhibition, the peak of each moment of fullness already invested with the melancholy of decay. As can be expected, the circularity of all things informs the exhibition.

    The works engage with modes of temporal metacognition, the awareness of time as an unfolding continuum and experiential present. Together, they reveal a profound simultaneity of richness and dissolution, tracing the thresholds at which transformation announces itself.

     

    Their turbulence offers both rupture and repair, growth and surrender, articulating an ongoing cycle of emergence, decay, and regeneration. In this, the exhibition gestures toward the inherent duality of transformation, an oscillation between ascent and waning that defines all solstitial states.
