Matt Carey-Williams is delighted to present Scene XVIII: the dark speck in the snow globe. Bringing together the work of Isaac Andrews, Eline Boerma, Bunny Hennessey, and Billy Myles-Berkouwer, this exhibition explores the space between figurative fidelity and abstract dissolution. Each artist traces the journey of the painted mark as it moves from legible representation toward more atmospheric and elusive forms. Across their practices, marks function simultaneously as anchors and agents of change, generating meaning while also allowing it to disperse.

At the heart of the exhibition lies the notion of disruption: a small but generative force that unsettles established forms and opens new possibilities. Rather than diminishing the act of painting, this productive instability recalibrates it, revealing the fluid dialogue between depiction and ambience, control and surrender. In these works, moments of uncertainty become sites of invention, inviting us to reconsider the transformative potential of the painter’s mark.
