Exhibitions
CURRENT AND FORTHCOMING
MAMMA: Kimi Zoet
Silian Gallery is delighted to present MAMMA, a solo exhibition by Kimi Zoet, on view from 10 July to 12 September 2025. The works were created during her walks in the Cornish landscape, where two characters emerged: Mamma, a quiet, bird-like figure of maternal strength, and Pineapple Person, a symbolic version of the artist herself. Through their relationship, Zoet weaves a tender narrative of protection, presence, and the kind of love that shelters without needing walls. Rooted in place yet lifted by imagination, MAMMA invites us into a gentle world where care becomes its own kind of sanctuary.
