VALENCIA, Spain - Jan. 30, 2023 - PRLog -- Bloom Gallery (Valencia), in collaboration with De Souza Gallery (UK), is delighted to present Revelations, an exhibition that brings together paintings by Sonia Domenech, Marie Julou, J. Kesín, Elizabeth Hefty-Khoury, Geanina Miler and Juan Petry. Each of the six artists explores different articulations and definitions of revelations through diverse and distinctive styles, interrogating a range of connected themes, including archaeology, philosophy, poetry, and, in particular, social and spiritual themes. These psychological compositions, whether highly abstracted or verging on figuration, pursue an intuitive connection to the universe and natural world.

Sonia Domenech's work is framed within abstract symbolism. The circle as a universal symbol and the encounter between the aesthetic philosophy of Western and Eastern discourse have been a major part of her artistic journey. Her works on exhibit reveal galactic universes that might flow through our minds, and while trying to escape everyday life, we find happiness in our own imagination. An imagination where everything is yet to be conceived.

The sensuous recent works of Marie Joulu, the "Pompeii Series," express her fascination with the relationship between painting and archaeology. Both practices deal with revelations and concealment, using layers of dirt or dust, which translate as time. We can envisage archaeologists digging up abstract paintings from a buried museum, with the surfaces of the works concealed by soot, dust, and mould.

Through associative abstraction and the deconstruction into layers as the carriers of meaning, J. Kesín creates paintings of his perception of subjects that vary from general concepts and social topics to poetry and the autobiographical. Layers can relate to physical aspects, different points in time, feelings, protagonists, .... and they may overlap, disappear, shine through, or resurface.

As a poet as well as a painter, Elizabeth Hefty-Khoury is fascinated by the interaction between words and images, how the two forms of expression can bleed into each other, transforming and transformative. Imagined Idioma is a series where words become form, and form becomes words, exploring the expressions of writing and drawing. It is based on an imagined language that expresses emotion in a way that is universally understood.

The intuitive abstract compositions of Geanina Miler's series "The Expressiveness of Colour" make reference to spiritual human evolution. At a moment when everything emerges with force, body and mind disconnect to give rise to creation. In these works, Miler's use of colour creates a sense of strong momentum, and combined with short and forceful brushstrokes, expose real strength and life.

Juan Petry shows works from the series "Amazing Citizens in Civil Wars" first exhibited in 2011. These works explore civil wars and the strength and courage of citizens.
