What Makes This Exhibition Special?
In the Heart of Here stands out for its ability to bridge the familiar and the imaginative. The works on display are not just depictions of physical spaces but are deeply introspective, revealing how the landscapes around us can shape and mirror our inner lives.
This exhibition invites a deeper appreciation of landscapes as more than mere scenery—they are dynamic reflections of human connection, cultural identity, and environmental awareness. By placing these two artists side by side, In the Heart of Here creates a dialogue between differing yet complementary approaches, encouraging new ways of thinking about the environments we inhabit.
The Artists and Their Perspectives
Chris Simonite: Abstract Landscapes with a Message

Drawing on influences from Cubism and pop culture, Simonite creates bold, abstract works that delve into humanity’s impact on the natural world. His pieces invite reflection on how modern life affects wildlife and ecosystems, blending traditional artistic techniques with contemporary social commentary.
