ROOT & RISE
26.6.26 - 1.8.26
OPENING EVENT 26.6.26, 6:30 - 9pm
CURATOR’S NOTE:
Root & Rise explores the transformative power of nature and self-nourishment. Bringing together cyanotypes, paintings and works of spiritual reflection, the exhibition invites you to slow down, look closely, and consider what sustains you. In a fast-moving world, art offers us something rare - a moment to be fully present, anchored. Housed within Self Love Superstore, Cardiff, the works reflect the ethos of this wellness studio and community; to tend to ourselves the way the earth tends to everything - with patience, with light, and without conditions.
This exhibition was curated by Occupata to celebrate the opening of Self Love Superstore and marks the start of a year-long rolling art programme and collaboration.
