(Not So) Silent Waters
Group exhibition: Andrés Layos | Kimberley Ann | Angelina Li
February 26 – April 5, 2026
Blk 9, Dempsey Rd #01-10, Singapore 247697
(Not So) Silent Waters opens ARTitude Galería’s four-year curatorial cycle dedicated to the classical elements: Water, Fire, Air and Earth. Although 2026 is known as a “Double Fire” year in Chinese astrology, the gallery begins with water to invite balance, reflection and a slower energy. In Feng Shui, water tempers excess fire, restoring flow, clarity and emotional equilibrium. Water is often perceived as permeable and gentle, yet in its undercurrent, an essential force emerges that absorbs heat, holds memory and embodies resilience beneath its calm surface.
The exhibition brings together three artists from Colombia, Hong Kong and the United Kingdom, centred on cultural exchange. Across their distinct practices, they approach water as a shared state of becoming. For Colombian artist Andrés Layos, water appears as a metaphor for pain, healing, chaos and calm. His seascapes carry quiet intensity, where movement and depth exist beneath a composed surface. British artist Kimberley Ann begins with structure, allowing her paintings to gradually open to movement and gravity, as colours drift into fluid passages that create a sense of continuity and transformation. For Hong Kong–based artist Angelina Li, “water embodies duality: powerful yet fragile, chaotic yet harmonious”. Time spent underwater has shaped her way of seeing, attuning her to suspended movement and slow transitions.
