In The Gallery
Momentum is a photography exhibition that captures the beauty, energy, and emotion of movement through diverse scenes and subjects. This collection invites viewers to explore movement as a universal thread woven into nature, cities, and daily life. Featuring striking moments frozen in time and sweeping motion blurs, the exhibition presents scenes from dynamic urban streets and tranquil landscapes, as well as intimate portraits and the lively rhythms of wildlife.
Each image tells a unique story of life in motion—whether it’s the rush of wind through trees, the pulse of city streets, or the expressive gestures of human and animal subjects. With contrasts between sharp, suspended action and ethereal, flowing blurs, Momentum encapsulates the endless ways in which movement shapes our experiences and emotions. This exhibition invites viewers to pause, reflect, and see the world through the lens of motion—a force that connects and drives all of us.
This exhibition is guest curated by Malcolm Wallace and features work from 36 artists in our gallery exhibition and an additional 11 artists online.
