Serene Gallery’s London pop-up exhibition uniquely showcases diverse artistic mediums. The gallery presents a rich tapestry of artistic expression, including sculpture, photography, painting, textiles, and objects.
For its first London exhibition, Serene Gallery showcases six contemporary artists working within various mediums. “I Promise to Stay With You” is a group attempt to speak to our inner turmoil and complex emotions, with an invitation to discover the beauty behind them.
As you gaze upon human bodies and flowers by Mariano Vivanco or “toys” by Polina Osipova, a sense of calm may wash over you. In this tranquillity, you have an opportunity to introspect. Abstract paintings by Konrad Wyrebek or Yelena Popova serve as a mirror for your emotions and thoughts. What do you perceive? What feelings do these paintings evoke in you? Only after you’ve formed your interpretations can you explore the complex and historical themes the artists have woven into their works. Drawings by Augusta Alexander and Martin Kovalenko, where you can sense the emotions through the depicted bodies, are more disturbing and provocative; you are trying to guess if you see the bodies correctly and understand what is happening inside the artwork.
Understanding an artwork is a personal journey, a conversation between the viewer
and the piece. “I Promise to Stay With You” provides a safe and welcoming space for this
exploration, inviting you to delve into the depths of artistic interpretation and the meaning of life, free from external pressures.
