Sahara Longe at Arnolfini

We'll be kicking off the summer exhibition season with a visit to Arnolfini to see a show by British artist, Sahara Longe, of new paintings by the artist. RSVP now to book your place on the event for free.

About the exhibition
Following her hauntingly personal exhibition Sugar (New York, 2024), where nudes were intimately enclosed within Symbolist imagery, Longe now returns to the clothed figure, capturing fleeting moments and the anonymity of the city against richly coloured backdrops inspired by post-war patterns. Including two monumental 4-metre-long paintings, scenes encompass ambiguous conversations and interactions, inviting audiences to imagine a multitude of stories that might live within.

*Please note: It now costs £300 a year for organisers like me to run MeetUp groups, so while this group is free to attend, please consider giving a donation to support the group's running if you enjoy these events/enjoyed this event. Thank you, Dominic
