5 March – 16 May

Canadian-French artist Sylvie Lambert (b. 1984, Montréal) presents her first solo exhibition, unveiling a new body of work produced predominantly since 2025. Through layered painting, sculptural assemblage and immersive installations, Lambert investigates materiality, perception and the boundary between representation and objecthood. Her practice combines painterly gestures, found materials and discreet colour studies to interrogate memory, embodiment and the politics of surface, inviting sustained attention to texture, scale and fragile systems of meaning.

8 May – 27 September

Vladimir Kartashov presents site-specific installations that unfold across historic island spaces, exploring temporal sequences and memory. Through sculptural interventions, architectural adaptations and subtle interventions in sacred interiors, the artist stages a choreography of objects and light that reconfigures perception of place and time. The series juxtaposes material rigor with ephemeral gestures, inviting reflection on duration, ritual and the layered histories embedded in built environments.

Opening:  Friday 8 May, 19:30
