London-based painter Stephen Appleby-Barr is presenting his fourth solo exhibition with Robilant and Voena, titled “Mesocosmos,” running from May 23 to July 4, 2025. The show features a new body of work created over two years, blending Old Master techniques with contemporary life and fantasy. Appleby-Barr describes the exhibition as a self-contained universe where drawings, sculptures, and paintings interact, with the aim of allowing each medium to influence the others in unexpected ways. The artist emphasizes ambiguity and the unknown over clear resolutions, inviting viewers to form their own interpretations.
