SEAGER Gallery presents FLOW, the exhibition explores the state of deep focus and absorption artists experience in the studio. Working between abstraction and figuration, the selected artists developed distinct visual languages shaped by intuition, material, and process.

Each practice follows its own rhythm, allowing paint to lead. Flow is understood as both method and state of being: the physical movement of materials, the psychological immersion described by psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, and the visual current that guides the viewer’s eye across the canvas. Creation myths often describe beginnings as fluid — solid land is emerging from darkness and water. Likewise, the shapes in these paintings surface from organised chaos, where figures appear and dissolve, and control gives way to release. The works oscillate between stillness and movement, emergence and disappearance In a post-pandemic world shaped by rupture and recalibration, FLOW attends to what moves beneath the surface. The exhibition invites viewers to slow down, drift, and attune to quieter currents — messages carried from within and below.
