Noor Al Suwaidi: The Sky Forgets, the Heart Remembers

In this exhibition of a new body of work, curated by Cima Azzam, Noor Al Suwaidi approaches colour as a field of sensation where form appears and dissolves within shifting tonalities – “figures hover at the edge of abstraction; colour gathers, disperses, and returns again … allowing forms to surface briefly before receding again, like a feeling remembered but never fully named”. Alongside the paintings, monochrome marble-like sculptures introduce a contrasting presence with absence of colour to offer a quiet counterpoint to the chromatic intensity of the canvases. And the gallery itself has been tuned to suit: “deep maroon walls hold the paintings in a state of quiet intensity … the architecture of the space has been softened. Surfaces are sanded and corners eased into gentle curves. The room no longer insists on edges. Instead, it moves with a quieter rhythm that echoes the sensibility of the works themselves …”

To 30 July.
