BE LONGING

SAVE THE DATE: FRIDAY 17 APR 2026 [18H00]

In her upcoming solo exhibition Be Longing, Namibian artist Anne Lacheiner-Kuhn reflects on the shifting and often contradictory nature of belonging. Through a new body of collage-based works that expand into layered, three-dimensional compositions, the exhibition explores how identity is shaped by place, memory and movement.

This tension between being and longing lies at the heart of the exhibition’s title. It suggests both the state of existing in a place—being—and the simultaneous desire for something beyond it—longing. For Lacheiner-Kuhn, these dual states mirror the lived experience of many people navigating multiple cultural and geographic identities.

Mark your calendars, it’s gona be a good one. We look forward to welcoming you all.

TIME AND LIGHT

NOW SHOWING

Pop by the gallery to view the latest showing by Helga Kohl. Many of you will recognise her iconic images of Kolmanskop, where the desert slowly moves through doorways and across rooms, reclaiming what was once a thriving diamond mining town. In the photographs from Elizabeth Bay we see something similar — buildings standing quietly against the forces of erosion and time. In contrast, the architectural abstractions from Windhoek remind us that this fascination with form, line and structure is not limited to ruins; it is present in the contemporary city as well.
