Exhibition highlight!
We’re thrilled to see Santiago Yahuarcani: The Beginning of Knowledge featured in Frieze as one of 'The Ten Best Shows in the UK and Ireland of 2025'.
Writer Sean Burns calls the exhibition “rich, layered and accomplished”, alongside Núria Frigola’s beautiful and heartening film, which shows the artist in Pebas, Peru, sharing ancestral knowledge with his children.
In this first international solo exhibition by the artist, the exhibition explores Yahuarcani’s use of traditional bark (llachama) and natural pigments to tell powerful stories of memory, land, and survival.
🖼 on until 4 January 2026
🎫 Free entry
