The Consciousness of Me

“This exhibition is a response by our Artists, to a poem by Isotou Nadia Halliday. 

The poem was originally a personal response to an experience. This exhibition seeks to widen the application of this wisdom developed from experience.

To be conscious of all of who we are changes and flows as we experience one another. We are all inter connected and therefore generate the Consciousness of Me. The question arises, how aware are we of our effect on others and the responsibility we each hold to use this to mutual benefit. 

The art has been selected to illustrate the Consciousness of Me from the obvious to the hidden meaning within the abstract.We invite you to spend time relating to the obvious and then seeking your own interpretation of the abstract in relation to the poem.

May 11th to the 17th 2026 is Mental Health Awareness Week, we hope we have contributed through this exhibition to this cause.

A big thank you to Canvas & Cream for working with us, making this an affordable exhibition that coincides with Mental Health Awareness Week and the Dulwich Festival. 

Enjoy!”
