Bare Things

„How much better is silence; the coffee-cup, the table. (…) Let me sit here forever with bare things, this coffee-cup, this knife, this fork, things in themselves, myself being myself.“ — Virginia Woolf, The Waves

At a time when the world feels increasingly chaotic - politically, socially, environmentally - Bare Things is an invitation to pause and reconsider the quiet, often overlooked moments of everyday life. In an era of excess, crisis, and uncertainty, there is a radical power in turning our attention to the ordinary: the weight of a cup in our hands, the play of light on a kitchen table, the unspoken intimacy of daily rituals.

This exhibition calls on artists to explore the magic hidden in the mundane, to uncover the poetry of stillness, and to reclaim the domestic as a space of contemplation, resistance, and quiet beauty. Bare Things is not about retreating from reality, but about finding depth in simplicity. The routine, the seemingly unremarkable: these are the things that hold us, shape us, and tether us to life when everything else feels uncertain. In a world that demands so much of us, paying attention to the smallest details can be an act of defiance, an assertion of presence, a return to what truly matters.

Radosław Chorab, born in 2000 and based in Katowice, Poland explores the delicate balance between presence and absence through his art. Oscillating between figuration and abstraction, Chorab’s layered textures and distorted figures explore themes of memory, loss, and the fragility of the body. His paintings – marked by erasure and distortion – invite us to consider what is often overlooked, forgotten, or left unsaid. Exhibitions such as Re-recovery in Katowice and MNFST in Warsaw, highlight his exploration of the quiet beauty and melancholy that resides in absence, memory, and the spaces between.
