Curating a Luxury Collection of Child Art

In this group of artists, intimacy, memory and abstraction converge in different methods, however all share a sensitivity to the short lived: the neglected image, the half-remembered place, the unstable boundary in between what we see and what we feel. Together, they form a quiet but insistent meditation on how meaning collects in regular life.

Taken together, rendered in her unique painterly design, these retellings of easily-forgotten moments demonstrate how a normal life, when analyzed from a certain point of view, begins to radiate a palpable sense of significance.Rosemary Burn Bowl of cherries, 2025 Mona Sultan's photocollages explain the fragmentary nature of memory and significance, calling photographic reality into question by breaking down, recontextualising and repeating images. Balancing systematic precision with a noticeably human, necessarily imperfect visual perceptiveness, his paintings are lighthearted abstractions for the digital age.Luke Rudolf Fizzog 4, 2025 Jo Berry's airbrushed paintings offer physical kinds to images that we typically see via a screen andquickly forget, such as stock photographs and ReCAPTCHAs. To me, her unique language hazy, distorted, discreetly disturbing shows the alienation and dissociation fundamental in a world saturated with images that seems to appear and vanish ever-more quickly. A shadow, a handstand, a large drape draped over a houseplant: by photographing such things, he provides a 2nd life in which they become permanent. Emile Kees Handstand, 2023 Jo Hummel's minimalist abstractions have a certain ahistorical quality; they link numerous histories of material experimentation and creation from around the globe within a distinct visual language. They situate the viewer within landscapes that feel endless with a low mist hanging over the horizon. Unknown, these images are deeply peaceful, inviting you to revel in the basic pleasures of a constantly twilit, pastoral world.Llus-Carles Peric Cap a La Calma, 2014 The scenes that Bianca MacCall paints a train window showing the carriage's interior over the passing landscape; a barely-visible car concealed by an ochre-yellow drape appear intentionally strange. They make me think about the simultaneous absurdity and appeal of the world in front of me, thinking about familiar scenes through an unfamiliar lens. Bianca MacCall Perpetual Motion, 2023 Henry Ward's painting practice is ever-shifting. In truth, if you stand in front of among his paintings for long enough, you might see it change in real time. The uncertain, unforeseeable nature of his work is what makes me keep returning to it.Henry Ward Bethany III, 2023.
