Ben Thouard is an ocean artist and one of the world’s foremost surf photographers. In his work water becomes a darkroom, an underwater camera obscura that reveals a singular, immersive vision. This exhibition presents previously unseen photography born of a near-daily practice: a language of water and light. Between organic forms, deep textures and shifts of shadow and clarity, Thouard’s images move between abstraction and contemplation, offering a sensory experience that explores the movements and metamorphoses of liquid matter.

Opening : 25 June, 18:00 – 21:00

7 May – 10 July

Yvan Salomone presents a series of recent watercolours that transform anonymous buildings and soulless industrial sites into evocative landscapes. Through delicate, velvety tones, subtle colour modulations and watery traces that suggest life, the artist elevates banal subjects and transfigures objective reality. The exhibition’s title, 2611, alludes to Salomone’s practice of assigning eleven‑letter titles composed from the alphabet, producing names that detach the work from literal description and invite poetic reading.

Opening: Thursday 7 May , 16:00

4 June – 17 July

Sébastien Bertrand presents a selection of paintings and works on paper by Rammellzee, highlighting the artist’s radical exploration of language, architecture and symbolic warfare. The presentation emphasises the material and pictorial force of dense compositions made with spray paint, ink, acrylic, metallic pigments, collage, markers and industrial materials. Together the works reveal a complex visual language that interrogates text, form and urban histories, situating Rammellzee’s practice within late twentieth-century experimental art.

Opening: 4 June, 18:30

1 May – 1 November

An interactive exhibition that invites visitors of all ages to explore the biological clocks that govern life on Earth. Through hands-on installations, immersive displays and scientific demonstrations, the show unveils the mechanisms and rhythms of circadian, seasonal and developmental timing. Multimedia exhibits and experimental stations illustrate how organisms synchronize with their environment and why respecting these rhythms matters for ecosystem balance. Educational workshops offer practical learning for school groups and families.

5 May – 30 September

Alice Izzo presents Botanic Circus, an immersive installation that transforms natural elements into a poetic visual performance. Through site-specific sculptural forms, coloured assemblies of flowers, plants and fruit become staged protagonists, inviting slow wandering, close observation and tactile interaction. The work blends installation, painted surfaces and ephemeral botanical assemblage to probe nature’s textures, theatricality and human perception. A parallel programme of monthly acrylic painting workshops complements the installation.

21 May – 26 June

Tomorrow Comes Today presents a carefully curated exhibition of contemporary visual work that interrogates temporality and the persistence of memory. Through painting, installation, photography and mixed-media practice, the show examines how everyday objects and fleeting moments accumulate meaning. The works employ layered surfaces, found materials and projected imagery to collapse past and future, inviting sustained attention to material process and embodied perception.
