Liberalism
Sean Crossley’s Liberalism transforms the logos of political parties into large-scale, two-by-two-metre paintings, asking what becomes possible when images designed for instant recognition are remade in a medium whose purpose is not communication, but attention. Ask ten people what “liberal” means and you may get ten different answers. At its root, the word points to […]
A Charm of Powerful Trouble
Hey sweetie..! You won’t believe what I’m about to tell you… Let me guide you through broken narratives, unstable images and intimate gestures. As you enter the realm of soft murmurs, powerful trouble begins to unfold. Here, where illicit knowledge travels between lips. Morphed by each tongue, it becomes something that holds us together. A […]
Escalator
When Jesse sent me his notes for this exhibition, the first thing he shared was, “This is a show for dark times.” And when someone who is as cordial, compassionate, and complicated as Jesse sends you something as heavy as that, your initial response likely ought to be to sit with the statement, at least […]
Kinetic Syntax
Kinetic Syntax brings together a set of practices that explore the relationship between gesture, sign, matter, and system, placing itself in a shared territory between drawing, writing, sculpture, and visual notation. Through a variety of media—painting, drawing, ceramics, textiles, or installation—the works in the exhibition investigate how forms can operate as units of meaning: marks, […]
IF THERE IS TENSION
How are we living within the fracture? Where does it reside, and how does it become visible? Written shortly before his death in 1940, Walter Benjamin’s On the Concept of History articulated a view of history that does not proceed through continuity but accumulates through discontinuities; one in which what appears as progress remains inseparable […]
Mother of One
Love here is not a feeling, but a principle — that connects scattered and separate things. Zofia Pałucha paints from photographs — press, film, private, and police — and moves between them without changing her tone. Tenderness coexists here with violence, and personal experience with the story of someone the artist will never meet. She […]
Substrate
Substrate is an underlying base layer, a nourishing and carrying platform, a surface of life that both enables things and gives birth to the new. It is a foundation that serves both as a medium and a site for events. The exhibition unfolds through the concept by exploring different substrates and the exchange between entities. […]

Residency: the wall
The history of one of the walls at S35 Gallery can be read as a “pentimento”, a trace of an earlier version of a painting. It is a past seen through what came after. Even before the gallery was established, several layers of plaster and paint were removed from the walls of the space, revealing […]
