Lumen Terrae (Light of the Earth) is an exhibition that celebrates a shared love of the natural world and the way light shapes our experience of landscape. Through acrylic painting, the exhibition explores light as both subject and atmosphere, revealing moments of movement, stillness, and harmony across land and sea.
Acrylic painters Guy Assanti and Josephine Arcella examine the layering and shifting qualities of light within their practice. While united by medium and theme, their works offer distinct yet complementary perspectives on the landscape.
Assanti’s seascape paintings capture the dynamic movement of water set against expansive, tranquil skies. Light is used to heighten contrast and rhythm, emphasising the energy of the sea while maintaining a sense of calm and balance.
Arcella’s works focus on the gentle passage of light across landscapes and still life. Her paintings celebrate light as it settles, reflects, and moves across surfaces, evoking quiet moments of contemplation and connection with nature.
Together, the works in Lumen Terrae invite viewers to slow their gaze and reflect on the presence of light as a unifying force within the natural environment.
