Four the Love of Art is an exhibition featuring the diverse work of four internationally renowned artists; Carly Casey (Sydney), Anna Coroneo (New York), Natalie Tkachuk (London) and Kareena Zerefos (London). The artists have collaborated in creating this unique show, celebrating their individual and distinctive styles. Exhibited artworks range across a broad spectrum of media including: painting, drawing and photography.

With a striking and contemporary edge, Casey’s charcoal drawings and oil paintings explore what it is to be an empowered modern woman. The artist captures an intense inner and outer beauty and the female spirit in all of its glory, from subtle gestures of repose, to gutsy and bold statements.


Coroneo’s vibrant paintings and photographs are inspired by the textures and energy of the natural and built environments. Often referencing botanical and marine life, Coroneo contrasts these inspirations with references to the man-made world. With a signature use of bold colours and intricate brushstrokes, Coroneo seeks to absorb all elements of life in its most primary form. Coroneo translates her artworks into textile prints for fashion, accessories and interiors, whilst keeping a valued consistency through all media.


Through the medium of photography, Tkachuk captures beauty in the everyday forgotten objects from an alternative angle, creating new objects from the abstract forms. Her delicate and mysterious images are like individual memories; shrouded in darkness, waiting to be opened and explored.


Zerefos’ delicately whimsical works on paper consider the human condition and its polarity of isolation and companionship; much of the artist’s work often captures children in poignant, reflective moments. Her work highlights her interest in the subtlety of poses and expression, capturing shyness, curiosity and a slight sense of longing. Through her drawings Zerefos brings to life an illusory and haunting world that is unique and refreshing in its simplicity.
