"The Layers Within"
19th -21st October 2026
20 Artists - 14 Nationalities
1. Artist Name: Abigail Chylek
Last year I was searching for something that would bring me true happiness and leave something lasting behind. In spring 2025 I started drawing and discovered how much joy it gives me.
I have always loved visiting galleries and admiring the work on the walls, and I dreamed of one day showing my own art to others. I am still at the beginning of my journey and I am currently drawing what I love most: nature and animals, which is why I will stay with this subject for now. My realistic animal portraits in graphite are built up layer by layer to capture fur, light and the quiet character of each animal. I know I can go far, and I am excited to share my work with you.
“Half Seen I”
Artist Name: Abigail Chylek

Description: Inspired by the Sumatran tiger, this drawing shows only half of the face, as the animal were stepping out of the shadows or slowly disappearing from view.
The intense sideways glance and the furrowed brow give the tiger a strong, watchful presence, while the soft layered fur and the flowing stripes reveal its quieter, more fragile side. Built up gradually in graphite, each stripe is a trace of the forest it belongs to.

Once on the brink of extinction and now slowly returning, the lynx stands here for quiet resilience and for the depth hidden behind a calm surface.

Through my paintings, I bring my childhood memories to life. My grandparents and their siblings owned a village in west-central Iran. Every summer, our extended family returned to the village. We ran through the fields, explored, danced, laughed, and celebrated together. At night, we slept on the balcony beneath the trees, watching the stars. Even today, I still dream of those summers.

Title: Memory is a Heavy Sword
Medium: Acrylic & Mixed Media on Canvas
Size: 60 x 80 cm
Year Created: 2026
Price: €920
Nationality: Serbian/Cypriot
Description: *Memory is a Heavy Sword* explores the weight of what we carry from the past, the fragments, emotions, and experiences that remain long after moments have disappeared. Layers of acrylic, gestural marks, scratches, stains, and found visual elements build a surface that feels both fractured and alive, suggesting the way memory is constantly rewritten and reshaped.
The dark central forms evoke the density of remembered experience, while turquoise and pale tones emerge like flashes of clarity, distance, or release. Repeated organic patterns suggest echoes, thoughts that return, transform, and resist being forgotten. The contrast between turbulence and open space reflects the tension between holding on and letting go.

The composition moves between energetic, fragmented forms and expansive areas of pale space, creating a tension between what is expressed and what remains unresolved. Layers of blue, turquoise, ochre, black, and warm earthy tones collide and overlap, reflecting the complexity of emotions that rarely exist in isolation.
Gestural marks, splashes, scratches, and repeated patterns create a sense of movement, as though thoughts are continuously shifting beneath the surface. The dominant blues suggest melancholy, but also calm, distance, and freedom.

For over twenty years, I worked in live event lighting as a lighting designer and trainer while developing my own painting practice. Working with light, colour and contrast still shapes how I paint. Today, I live and work near Paphos, creating abstract mixed-media paintings.
I work intuitively, without sketches, building up layers of acrylic and texture paste. Some pastes I make myself, others react with a second layer. Both crack as they dry, each in its own way.
I can guide the process, but never fully control it, and those cracks are part of the work. Many of my paintings begin at the sea, where I can switch off and let my thoughts wander. My work has been exhibited in Berlin, Rome, Lisbon, Miami, New York, Limassol and Paphos.

My impressionistic oil paintings capture the poetry of light, the beauty of the sea, and the timeless elegance of architecture. Through expressive brushstrokes, luminous colors, and shimmering reflections, I transform fleeting moments into lasting emotions. Each canvas invites you into a world of serenity, romance, and quiet wonder, where Mediterranean light awakens cherished memories and inspires new dreams.
The interplay of sea, sky, and architecture creates an atmosphere that feels both familiar and dreamlike. More than a visual experience, my art is an invitation to pause, to feel, and to wander beyond the present moment. Every painting tells a story, evokes a memory, and leaves space for your imagination, a timeless connection between light, place, emotion, and the soul.

19. Artist Name: Roula Crisp
Born in Lebanon and now based in Cyprus, Roula Crisp began studying art during her teenage years at the Al Hamaoui School of Art in Beirut. Her early work focused on oil painting, landscapes and realism, but she became increasingly interested in using colour as a direct expression of feeling and emotion.
That search led her towards acrylic flow painting and abstraction, where the movement of paint itself becomes part of the creative process. Having lived and worked in Cyprus, London, Bahrain, Germany and Qatar, Crisp brings a varied personal history to work that is rooted in colour, memory, hope and imagination.

20. Artist Name: Thekrayat Al Abbasi
Thekrayat Al Abbasi is a Bahraini ceramic maker based in Cyprus. Her journey with clay began in 2021 through painting terracotta bowls, before developing into slab-built work and later wheel-thrown ceramics at The Makers Space in Tala. She works with different clays and glazes, allowing the material's natural movement and subtle imperfections to remain visible.
Arabic calligraphy has become central to her developing visual language: the word Thekrayat, meaning Memories, appears across her signature pieces alongside flowing Arabesque elements. Together these forms connect personal memory, making and Arab cultural heritage. “Bringing calligraphy onto clay marked a defining evolution in my practice.”
