Homecoming Gallery opened a group exhibition on 7 May, called “A Kinetic Negotiation,” co-curated by Thom Oosterhof. The exhibition is on display until 22 June, 2026.

The exhibition focuses on the human condition being in constant negotiation. As we live in fragile times of exploitation of dopamine, we are required to adapt to every change, carry on with many projects until we burn out. This exact feeling of imposed structures and human impulse is what the exhibition sets to explore.

Works by Angela Santana (CH/US), Jameela Stenheden Gordon-King (UK), Lisa Jahovic (UK), and Viktoriya Dijk (BY/NL/UK) explore together how the body and the mind negotiate their position in the fast-paced world. A little about the artists you are going to see: 

Angela Santana is Swiss-born, New York-based artist who who focuses on the rapid consumption of images online and challenges the power structures by using experimental oil paint to show distorted consciousness.

Jameela Stenheden Gordon-King is a London-based painter who utilises painting as a cathartic act. In this way, painting is a way of releasing energy, how the body reacts and absorbs the pressures of our contemporary world. 

Lisa Jahovic, London-based artist, is working between sculpture, film, and photography. Her practice is grounded in anthropomorphism, ascribing inanimate objects poetic narratives or unexpected dialogues around memory and identity. 

Viktoryia Dijk is Belarus-born, Rotterdam and London-based artist who engages with themes of identity, belonging, and transition by moving between visual languages and cultural context.
