Saturn’s Garden is a garden cultivated by time, migration, and memory.
Here, tokens and stories migrate, take root, and intertwine like plants—some blending seamlessly, others retaining their distinct shapes.
“Saturn” embodies the slow, cyclical rhythm of growth, as well as an act of cultural gathering—bringing together material and immaterial heritage from different places and generations into shared soil.
Hackney serves both as the real landscape of this garden and as a “cultural landscape” in anthropology, where coexistence, conflict, and regeneration unfold within a diverse community.

Aria of the Unheard assembles nineteen artists tracing subtle vibrations—like moonlight on water—through moving image, sculpture, performance, photography, and installation. Emerging from the margins of perception, these works share a cadence shaped by indirect light, tidal rhythms, and nonlinear time. Resisting the clarity of visual modernity, the exhibition reconfigures the field of perception, inviting viewers to attune to what quietly persists beneath the surface.

What Holds, What Drifts unfolds textile as a site of philosophical tension—pulled between binding and loosening, structure and drift. Here, fabric is not merely material but metaphor, holding attachment and estrangement, repair and rupture, the fragile architectures of relation. Sailing and stitching mirror each other as gestures of escape and of care, asking: What is the weight of what we carry, and the shape of what we let go?

Syncretic Ornament is the first solo exhibition in China by London-based artist Zorg, developed through long-term ethnographic engagement in a multi-ethnic neighbourhood of East London. Drawing on community encounters, architectural detail, and ornamental logic, the works explore how Buddhist motifs, Islamic geometry, Coptic crosses, and vernacular embellishments merge into a living archive of coexistence. Ornament here is not mere decoration, but a site of negotiation, cross-cultural translation, and shared meaning.

Migration Distribution examines the southward journey of wild Asian elephants from Yunnan as both ecological event and geopolitical intervention. Through field investigation, drawing, cyanotype, satellite imagery, and archival documentation, the artists trace how elephant movement intersects with state borders, habitat fragmentation, and systems of control. The exhibition reframes migration through non-human agency, revealing the displacements, ruptures, and surveillance politics embedded in shared landscapes.
