Gestures In Balance features three artists who engage with gesture not merely as mark or movement, but as a subtle negotiation between presence and absence, control and surrender. This exhibition is an inquiry into what the sub conscious state of being may look like.Paintings by French based artist, Zarah Cassim, unfold as meditations on the liminal space between motion and stillness. Her landscapes, veiled in thin layers of oil, become contemplative fields where form dissolves and the mind hovers in ambiguity. Here, gesture holds a quiet tension both expressive and restrained, inviting reflection on the fleeting nature of perception and those in-between moments that often elude us.Inga Dalrymple’s process navigates the delicate border where impulse meets deliberation. Her marks are thinking gestures, unfolding in time as a dialogue between intuition and control. The surface becomes a site of constant negotiation, embracing imbalance and visual friction as necessary openings to new equilibria. This tension mirrors the philosophical paradox of existence itself - the interplay of collapse and repair, order and chaos.The impact of Greg Penn’s sculptural language emerges from the deep currents of the body’s subtle energies, informed by yogic philosophy. His works articulate the unseen flow that moves through and beyond the physical - an interconnection of body, mind, and spirit. These gestures embody the ancient concept of balance as dynamic harmony, which is less a fixed point than a continuous state of becoming. The abstract forms speak to a broader understanding of existence as something fluid and ever-changing, where presence is found not in stillness, but in movement, energy and the space in between.Together, these artists invite us to consider balance not as a static ideal, but as a momentary alignment within the continuous becoming a gesture that embraces impermanence, uncertainty, and the fragile beauty of the human condition.
