Thank You for Being a Friend: Group Exhibition
Thu, 8 May 2025 Fri, 4 Jul 2025
Silian Gallery is delighted to present Thank You for Being a Friend, a group exhibition featuring artists Annette Harvest, Connor Phillips, Deshna Shah, Shayna Fonseka, and Samuel George. The show is on view from 8th May to 4th July 2025.
Spanning painting, sculpture, installation, film, and conceptual language, the exhibition reflects on creative friendship — not as subject, but as condition. Each artist presents a distinct visual language, yet the works are subtly linked by a shared rhythm: the imprint of time spent together, and the quiet exchanges that shape artistic practice in ways both visible and invisible.
Curated as a journey through independence, exploration, and collective presence, Thank You for Being a Friend honours the nuances of growing in parallel.
A tender acknowledgment of influence, a shared breath, a pause to say: I saw you. You were there.
