London’s Hidden Gem Exhibition Recommendation | Between Wood and Wheel

Went to see it yesterday and it was truly 💯 ✨Christina Kimeze’s solo exhibition at the South London Gallery features a gentle and restrained color palette that captures fluidity, identity, and memory. Her works hover between the figurative and the abstract, shifting like memory fragments between blur and clarity, as if traversing the line between reality and dreams. ✨The imagery of pulleys frequently appears in her paintings, symbolizing not just physical movement but also migration, transition, and freedom, hinting at the fluidity and uncertainty of identity. Her creation explores the inner world and a sense of belonging, presenting the subtle shifts of individual experiences through a rich visual language. ✨One tapestry work in particular stands out; it’s not just an extension of painting but also reinforces the spatial and material aspects of the piece. The texture of the fabric adds depth to the image, as if memories are woven into the cloth, with each thread carrying the traces of time, giving the work a deeper tactile and immersive quality. If you’re a fan of contemporary painting and emotionally charged visual language, this exhibition is not to be missed! 💫 📅 Exhibition Dates: January 31, 2025 - May 11, 2025 📍 Venue: South London Gallery Main Gallery & Fire Station Gallery 🎟 Admission: Free #SouthLondonGallery #ChristinaKimeze #PulleysAndFluidity #ContemporaryArt #HiddenGemExhibition #LondonArt #ArtLovers #ArtExploration #LondonExhibition
