“This is for Shardae-Rose. For our love. For our respective struggles. For the pain and the grief. In the name of melancholia. This is the first time I’ve painted with so much intent. And I have done so always thinking of you, Shardae-Rose.”

Launching the debut exhibition by Cyril Ferrando.

Join us in person on Friday, 28th June at the Picturehouse for the launch this free exhibition, featuring new works exploring the artist’s innermost self and darkest thoughts, and anchored in love.

The evening also celebrates the exhibition launch of Intimate Stories by fine artist Chrissy Thirlaway.
