Great Escapes

5 February 2026 - 28 February 2026

Rowan Paton

This February, we are delighted to present Great Escapes, Rowan Paton’s first major exhibition at The Gallery. Working across painting, collage, and printmaking, Paton creates joyous visual worlds that are both imagined and intimately connected to her lived experience.

Taking inspiration from music, poetry, and a continual need for a visual reset, Paton’s work reflects the shifting dialogue between the vastness of the natural world and inner contemplation, inviting viewers to find their own meaning in her striking images.
