Exhibition

Isabella Dyson and Chris Dyson: Terra Firma

29 Mar-27 Apr 2025

The Grey Gallery
London E8 3SB

Overview

 

 

The title of this exhibition, Terra Firma, denotes substance: dry land, solid ground. In these uncertain times, the works of Isabella Dyson and Chris Dyson convey stability in landscapes and still life paintings, and in buildings that endure.  

 

London-based artist, Isabella Dyson and her father, architect Chris Dyson, explore the shared ideals of their disciplines in this collaborative exhibition. Their works reflect a similar pursuit of serenity and visual enjoyment, in different ways expressing form, beauty, light, emotion and craft. Isabella’s paintings capture imagined landscapes inspired by Suffolk’s coastlines and big skies, while Chris’s drawings reflect a way of thinking about space, and committing places, forms and ideas to memory through a sketch.  

At Grey Gallery, they present a curated selection of recent paintings and drawings that highlight how art and architecture intertwine – and in the process, offer new perspectives on the work of each.
