FAMILY BUSINESS | ANDREW HEM

Hem’s biography is inseparable from an interrupted geography. Born while his parents were fleeing Cambodia after the Khmer Rouge genocide and raised in Los Angeles, Andrew Hem developed his visual language between the animist culture of his Khmer ancestors and the urban energy of the American city, where graffiti became one of his earliest forms of visual education.

In Family Business, this geography becomes intimate. Workshops, markets, shops, and fish stalls become places where everyday gestures carry traces of what came before and what will continue afterwards.

The title also refers to transmission: the crafts, recipes, gestures, rhythms, and habits that pass from one generation to the next. For Hem, this has a personal meaning. His father was a painter and art teacher, and Hem eventually recognised the same impulse in himself.

Family Business is therefore not only about work, but about what is inherited through proximity: what passes from one hand to another, and what survives within a family without ever being written down.

SILENT ENCOUNTERS | DULK
There is something almost deceptive in the beauty of Dulk’s world.
Animals emerge from impossible landscapes with the splendour of creatures belonging to another realm. Yet behind the dream lies something urgently real.
Born from Dulk’s encounters with remote landscapes and endangered ecosystems, these paintings transform wonder into awareness. His animals are never decorative presences: they carry weight, dignity and vulnerability, becoming silent witnesses to a natural world whose extraordinary beauty is being quietly consumed.
Dulk does not confront us through catastrophe. He does something perhaps more powerful: he makes us fall in love with what we are in danger of losing.

Dreams are never just images.
They are textures, scents, fragments of memory, emotions that survive long after words disappear.
La Matière du Rêve explores that suspended territory where memory, imagination and the senses meet. Inspired by thinkers including Bachelard, Proust, Jung, Aby Warburg and Walter Benjamin, the exhibition invites us to consider dreams not as an escape from reality, but as another way of experiencing it.
Featuring sixteen contemporary artists, the exhibition unfolds as an immersive journey through atmosphere, memory and perception.
As Jean-Paul Guerlain once said:
“Perfume is the most intense form of memory.”
But what if dreams remember too?
What does your deepest memory smell like?

Dorothy Circus Gallery is taking a little summer pause to recharge, dream, and gather fresh inspiration for the season ahead. ☀️
Both our Rome and London galleries will be closed from 1 August to 10 September, before reopening our doors with exciting new projects, exhibitions, and surprises waiting to be shared.
To everyone who has visited us, collected with us, supported our artists, or simply followed our journey this season, thank you.
We wish you a beautiful summer filled with rest, discovery, and moments that inspire. We look forward to welcoming you back in September for another chapter of art, imagination, and meaningful encounters.

What an unforgettable evening at Dorothy Circus Gallery London!

We were delighted to open La Matière du Rêve – Part One.

La Matière du Rêve explores the invisible substance from which dreams emerge: memory, intuition, desire, emotion, and imagination. It invites us to consider dreams not as an escape from reality, but as a realm where reality quietly unveils its deepest truths.

Each artist gives form to what usually remains intangible—transforming memories into landscapes, emotions into symbols, and silence into visual poetry. Together, their works create an immersive constellation where the boundaries between the conscious and the unconscious, the remembered and the imagined, gently dissolve.

Part One is now open at Dorothy Circus Gallery London, with Part Two to follow this November, continuing our exploration of the fertile territory where dreams become matter.
