*** FIRST TIME SHOWING OF "THE HOMECOMING" ***
An Invitation to You All
This Friday from 7pm - 10th April, I’ll be exhibiting alongside 22 other artists at a brand new venue in Canton, Cardiff. It’s a unique space called Blasus—South Wales’ first succulent emporium, home to over 200 varieties of houseplants, cacti, and succulents.
Tucked away just off Cowbridge Road East (Blasus Succulent Emporium, Unit 1, Hedel Road, Canton, Cardiff, CF11 8DJ), it’s a bit of a hidden gem… and an unexpectedly perfect setting for art.
I know—art in a plant emporium might sound unusual. I thought the same at first. But once you experience the atmosphere, with its café/bar, late openings, and creative energy, it all makes perfect sense.
I’ll be showing four pieces from my Heritage Series, including brand new artwork being revealed publicly for the very first time.
The piece is titled “The Homecoming”—a work that reflects on a deeply human side of war: the waiting, the uncertainty, and the enduring hope for the return of a loved one from distant conflict.
If you’ve seen a small glimpse of it on social media, this will be your first chance to experience it in full.
I’d love for you to come along, say hello, and explore this wonderfully quirky space while discovering some fantastic new artists. Here is the locations link: https://www.blasus.co.uk/
Thank you, as always, for your continued support—it means a great deal as my work evolves into new and exciting directions.
Warm regards,
Ian
