REBECCA GILPIN

London-based painter Rebecca Gilpin explores rhythm as it appears in the natural world, music, and urban life. Her oil paintings serve as records of her decision-making process, shaped by a deep sensitivity to her environment. Each canvas becomes both a journey and a portrait of an inner landscape, where colour, form, and movement collide.

Working without a predetermined outcome, Gilpin enters a flow state in the studio, often painting to music. Sound, along with memory, shifting light, reflection, and landscape inform her compositional choices and brushwork. The resulting visual language feels at once spontaneous and carefully constructed, with each gesture embedded in layered paint.

Gilpin’s work is rooted in a deep investigation into the materiality of oil paint. She experiments with thick and thin applications, layering and removal, and the tension between transparency and opacity. Light also plays a central role in her work, from the synthetic glow of music venues to the natural shifts of daylight, transforming colour into an emotional force.

DIAS BY PIA RIVEROLA

Días by Pia Riverola is a tonal collage of places and days by Spanish photographer Pia Riverola. Renowned for her evocative, hazy imagery, the delicately-sequenced Días uses motion, blur, and dappled light to create a sensory and synaesthetic experience, transporting you to a memory long-forgotten, plucked from time. Riverola’s dreamy images, soaked in atmosphere, evoke feelings of distance and travel: from neon-lit rainy Japanese nights, a Mediterranean breeze lifting a Spanish tablecloth, or Italian drizzle softly falling beneath an umbrella in a Roman garden.
