Join us for Journey of Light, an enchanting solo exhibition featuring the recent works of London-based artist Özlem Sorlu Thompson. Her vibrant and expressive paintings beautifully encapsulate the essence of the Mediterranean sun from her native Turkey. 🌞

The highlight of this exhibition is a captivating polyptych inspired by her exploration of Şeytan Sofrası, a mythical hilltop on the Aegean coast renowned for its legendary lava pond. According to local folklore, this spot marks the imprint left by the devil as he was cast down from heaven. This piece, which began as a small sketch, has evolved into Thompson's largest painting to date, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in a dreamlike landscape where ancient legends intertwine with visions of the future. 🌌

Thompson’s unique approach to art, initially driven by a scientific curiosity about flora and fauna, has developed into a deep intuition and appreciation for the intangible qualities of nature. Her love for exotic plants and the natural world shines through in each piece. With sunlight captured in her works, Thompson's art has garnered international acclaim, finding homes in prestigious collections from Dubai to the Americas. 🌍

Journey of Light not only celebrates Thompson's artistic journey but also commemorates the tenth anniversary of her relocation to North London, creating a meaningful connection between her homeland and her new surroundings. ✨

Don't miss this opportunity to witness the fusion of culture, nature, and artistry!
