COMING SOON !!!

‘Under The Same Sky’

At PaintSpaces Gallery

7th,8th, 13th 14th June 2026 , 11-4pm

This new exhibition reflects on the idea that all life exists beneath the same sky, a unifying presence that connects us across place, culture, and experience. Following previous exhibitions Landlines and Waterlines, which focused on the elemental forces of land and water, Under the Same Sky broadens the lens. The sky becomes both subject and metaphor: a shared canopy, a shifting atmosphere, a space of light, weather, distance, and wonder. It invites reflection on our relationship with nature and one another, encouraging artists to explore themes of connection, interdependence, and belonging. Artists have responded freely to the title, resulting in a rich and varied exhibition rooted in the natural world.

Through painting, drawing and mixed media, the works on display explore changing horizons, fleeting light, environmental awareness, and the quiet continuity that binds all living things.

Artwork will be available to buy!

Exhibiting Artists:
Anthony Garratt , Catalina Christensen, Catherine Greenwood, Ullrich, van Heemstra, Ibby Lanfear, Jyoti Bharwani, Kerrie O’Leary, Laura Melissa Williams, Louisa Burnett-Hall, Louise Ann Wilson, Louisa Crispin, Lucinda Devenish, Luke M Walker, Polly Bennett, Sam Gare, Somewhere-nowhere - Rob and Harriet Fraser, Stephen Bennett, Wanlin Chang, Yeside Linney

Artwork Statement

When I look at these paintings in dim or darkish light, I can easily imagine the night sky and distant galaxies. In brighter light that shines on the surface of the paintings, the silvery aspects of the waxing and waning and the sliver of a new moon, come to mind.

🌟 Artist Spotlight: Louise Ann Wilson 🌟wilson

Artist Bio

Louise Ann Wilson creates site-specific walking-performances, installations, films and photographic images that emplace life-events in rural landscapes. Intersecting art and medicine her practice has addressed breast cancer and surgery, hysterectomy and menopause, terminal illness and bereavement, in/fertility and childlessness-by-circumstance. Her book Sites of Transformation: Applied and Socially Engaged Scenography in Rural Landscapes (Bloomsbury Methuen 2022) was shortlisted for the Prague Quadrennial of Performance Design and Space Best Book Award 2023.

Artist Statement

In July 2023, Louise was diagnosed with pre-invasive breast cancer and had several surgeries. In a project called Becoming Rock, she used photography, film, and drawing to document and express her experience. This involved an extended period of emplacing (and photographing) her body within rocky locations, including, as in this image, at Farleton Knott in Cumbria on the 15th of March 2023 – the night of the super moon and the night after her first surgery. The arm gestures in this image are based on the post-surgery exercise routine given by the physiotherapist.

✨ Artist Spotlight: Geraldine van Heemstra ✨

Geraldine’s handmade concertina book is filled with miniature etchings, seaweed, bark, cordage, and goldleaf. It stands, folds, and shifts endlessly, just like the tides that inspired it. Visitors can explore and create countless combinations of how the book can be displayed, a work of art that changes with every arrangement.

Statement
Floating on Light – a Journey from Dark into Light
Concertina book with wind etchings and monotypes, mixed media of card, paper, bark, cordage made with inner bark, dried seaweed and goldleaf, dimensions variable 15 x 15 x 15cm

The clasp of the book is made from a holdfast, the root-like structure that anchors seaweed to the seabed, giving stability while allowing the plant to move freely with the water. Seaweed, in constant dialogue with the tides, mirrors the Moon’s phases, which govern the ocean’s ebb and flow.

Bio
Drawn to wind and weather, Geraldine connects deeply with the shifting landscape through walking, sailing, and immersion in the Scottish hills and coastline. Her marks are made in collaboration with nature, expressed predominantly in painting and printmaking.

Geraldine graduated from City & Guilds of London Art School in 2019 (MA) and was awarded the Norman Ackroyd Prize for Etching. She has been shortlisted for the Clifford Chance Postgraduate Printmaking Prize (2019), nominated for The Signature Art Prize (2020), winner of the Intaglio Printmakers Prize (2021), and in 2024 received the Nancy Graham Memorial Book Award at the Royal Scottish Academy’s centenary exhibition of Visual Arts Scotland.

✨ Artist Spotlight: Catherine Greenwood ✨

Her silk artwork cascades down the gallery wall, a cyanotype of a woman reaching for the moon, created with her daughter. Enchanting, powerful, and made permanent through sunlight, shadow, and endurance.

Statement

“The darkest night would shine
If you would come to me soon
Until you will, how still my heart
How high the moon”

Cyanotypes are a way of capturing time itself. Working with her daughter, Catherine drew on sea and mermaid imagery with the Moon alluded to in the jazz ballad How High the Moon. The process required patience, endurance and trust, as her daughter held a pose for over 30 minutes in direct sunlight while silk, coated in light-sensitive solution, absorbed the image.

Together they seized a rare moment, surrounded by plants, using a plate to form the Moon, exposing the piece under midday sun. The result is an artwork that transcends the process itself, expressing connection to water, place, and the earth.

Bio
Catherine Greenwood (b. 1968, Beckenham) is a British landscape artist based in Sussex, specialising in etching and monotype printmaking. She studied at Camberwell School of Art, City & Guilds Art School (Printmaking Fellow 2019), and earned her MA from the University of Maine, USA. Catherine is a member of , teaches etching at Putney School of Art and in independent print studios, and has exhibited widely including the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair, and the Houses of Parliament.

Artist Spotlight: Andre Bardega ✨
Featured in Moon Things (7–23 September)

Celestial Symbiosis
58.5 x 70.5cm framed
Casein pigment and watercolour

Andre Bardega was born in Paris and trained at Hammersmith College of Art, Bath Academy of Art, and later at the Tate Gallery and Courtauld Institute. His career has taken him from Tokyo, where he studied Japanese painting and restoration, back to Brighton where he continues to paint and restore to this day. He has exhibited at the Royal Academy Summer Show, the Pastel Society, and across the UK and abroad, with works held in collections in Japan, USA, Spain, and the UK.

His practice bridges realism and abstraction, often drawing on direct observation. Celestial Symbiosis reflects on the moon’s vital role in stabilising Earth’s rotation, tides, and climate. Here the moon dominates the composition, while Earth appears as its beneficiary — inviting us to consider our place in this cosmic balance.

✨ Artist Spotlight: Luke M Walker ✨

What if a painting could capture not just a view, but the very act of moving through it? London-based artist Luke M Walker transforms his walks into striking “Datascapes”, artworks born from steps, speed, altitude and time itself. Each piece is both a landscape and a record of presence, a meditation on the physical and temporal traces we leave behind.

From full-moon walks across London to mixed-media experiments that combine photo transfers with paint, Luke’s work invites us to consider how movement, memory and environment merge into new forms of landscape art. A Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society and co-founder of The Wilderness Art Collective, Luke’s practice is a reminder that walking is more than passage, it’s an act of seeing.

🌙 Come experience his work as part of Moon Things at PaintSpaces Gallery, West Hampstead.
