Mendes Wood DM is pleased to present the group exhibition Remanso with works by Eleonore Koch, Linda Kohen, Anna Livia Monahan, Rayana Rayo and Paula Siebra. Their paintings expose what is intrinsic to them, leading the eye into silent, dense, and symbolic territories. Their works illuminate domestic spaces, bodies, objects, and representations of the psyche and the feminine, creating a constellation of symbols that translate a private yet communicable everyday life.
Remanso brings together an intergenerational constellation of artists from different geographical regions and unique backgrounds, who have found each other in the craft of small-scale painting. At first discreet, the canvases have a depth that takes the viewer inside themselves: they evoke memories, dreams, fears, and uncertainties. This sensitive dialogue becomes even more powerful when it inhabits Casa Iramaia, a former family home whose introspective atmosphere both welcomes and amplifies the visual narratives, as if it were an extension of the works themselves.




Intellectually rigorous, politically active, and highly conceptual, the programme of contemporary art gallery Mendes Wood DM places an emphasis on critical conversation, working to embrace the individuality of each artist while also supporting the discovery of intersections between practices that might initially seem disparate.
