Created during a shared artist residency in Kavala, Greece, Tiny Altars to Seeing Sparkles brings together the works of Frances Powell, Rhianna Phillips, and Julie Aida Graf — three artists connected by a quiet attentiveness to place, presence, and process.

Through painting, photography, collage, and mixed media, each artist reflects on the gentle, sparkly moments that shaped their time in Kavala: sun-drenched coastlines, unplanned conversations, daily rituals, and the emotional textures of creative renewal. Their works honour the act of noticing — of slowing down, seeing beauty in the everyday, and reconnecting with the joy of making.

Powell’s introspective, narrative-driven works explore the emotional echoes of memory and human connection. Phillips’s tactile images and subtle marks invite stillness, drawing from her somatic response to place and feeling. Graf’s playful, colour-rich abstractions are informed by landscape, form and gesture — capturing the joy of exploration through material and mood.

Together, these works form a collective offering — tiny altars to creativity, connection, and wonder. VIew the exhibition here.
