For 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝗿𝗺𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗦𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 (@thearmoryshow), we are pleased to present a group of seven artists whose practices explore the shifting relationships between identity, belonging and place. Curated by 𝗗𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗲𝗹 𝗦. 𝗣𝗮𝗹𝗺𝗲𝗿, Chief Curator of the SCAD Museum of Art (@scadmoa), the presentation brings together 𝗕𝗵𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗶 𝗞𝗵𝗲𝗿 (@bharti_kher_studio_), 𝗝𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗞𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗮𝘁 (@jitishkallat), 𝗧𝗵𝘂𝗸𝗿𝗮𝗹 & 𝗧𝗮𝗴𝗿𝗮 (@thukralandtagra), 𝗞𝘂𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗦𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗵 (@kuldeepsingh19), 𝗥𝗮𝗷𝗻𝗶 𝗣𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗿𝗮 (@rajniperera), 𝗥𝗮𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗶 𝗕𝗵𝗼𝘄 (@raginibhow) 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗠𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗺𝘀 (@chasonmatthams). Their works approach these questions through radically different materials and visual languages. Together, they ask how identity is formed through what we see, remember, inherit and encounter.

We look forward to seeing you soon!

This month’s nail art is inspired by the ocean and seashells, with a specific shout out to those artists who include shells in their work: Georgia O’Keefe, Irving Penn, and Chason Matthams. And now, heading out to the French Rivera to enjoy some sunshine!

October ‘25 - You have always been my favorite, but this one tops them all.

My first full month with you. Quiet cozy unforgettable. Wishing Happy Birthday to dad for the first time. Saying it all with no words at all. Watching you becoming who you are, subtly and softly, like waking up from a dream and remembering. I’m following your lead here. Learning to trust. Keeping things close and trying to stay open.

Watching our parents as parents now. How they settle into being grandparents again. For the 2nd and the 7th time.

Lucky. He loves his whale onesie.

More friends visits and pumpkin carvings so good I felt like I was looking at all of our children. Fires and Babies.

Peacing out with cousins for the first time, brother as an uncle, and new ways to carry him home. You wear fatherhood so well. I’m still getting used to my new reflection and having too much time for reflections.

An odd sort of Wizard of Oz romp on my first night out. And a different sort of Halloween, one where trick or treating is allowed again, carrying you under my coat to keep warm.

Savoring each moment as time speeds up in our arms, a tangible thing now.

Feed shit spit repeat.

LONDON | Chason Matthams | Union Pacific | Through October 25, 2025⁠
We are pleased to share that "Hardly at all and through and through", a solo presentation of new paintings by @chasonmatthams, is now on view at Union Pacific.⁠
⁠
Matthams’s practice is defined by two central themes: his meticulous studies of vintage and contemporary film cameras, and his exploration of organic forms, such as shells, stones, and self-arranged corsages of flowers, often set against backdrops inspired by art historical references. The former, in particular, turn the act of representation inward, reflecting on the very machinery with which images are captured and time is frozen. In this way, the artist engages with the history of seeing and depicting itself. These image-making technologies—ranging from microscopy and aerial views to time-lapse photography—have not only allowed us to witness the passage of time but have also given us the power to label and categorize it.⁠
The works on view at Union Pacific continue to explore this dynamic intersection of the mechanical and the organic. Matthams’s subjects migrate within this rich territory, sometimes blurring the lines between the two, occupying an ambiguous space where the organic meets the technological. In doing so, they suggest a deeper truth: what may appear fixed and solid to us in the present moment is, in fact, fluid and uncontainable. It is, as Matthams reminds us, futile to think, as humans have so often done, that we might ever truly capture the ever-changing world around us.⁠

Good start to the art season! Step into the fragmentary nature of consciousness with Chason Matthams’ ‘Hardly at all and Through and Through’. What appears first as contemplative stillness unfolds into something just a little unsettling, mechanical and organic forms merging with exquisite detail and uncanny presence. On view now at Union Pacific, until 25 October.
