This exhibition is about LIFE itself:
its emotions, memories and happenings,
distilled into a single moment: captured on canvas, by lens, in wood.

Each of us experiences life in an indelibly unique way – and we capture and communicate our experiences just as uniquely. Some capture experiences in paint, photographs or penned words on paper, distilling life down to the most absolute essence. For some it is a moment of exquisite joy they capture. For others, despair and disappointment. For some, they ask questions about life and its meaning – while for others again, their distillations of life attempt an answer.
“We do not remember days, we remember moments.” ~ Cesare Pavese
