Chroma, a solo exhibition by Jessie Woodward

Past
12th of June – 30th of August

125 Space unveils Chroma, the first exhibition in Cyprus by British contemporary artist Jessie Woodward. Known for her bold colour palette and experimental approach to abstraction, Woodward's work explores the emotive and communicative power of paint and mark-making.

At the core of Woodward’s practice lies an intuitive, yet deliberate process that treats painting as both a visual and visceral language. Her compositions—seemingly spontaneous yet rigorously constructed—juxtapose textures, ratios, and chromatic intensities, resulting in works that pulse with visual energy and emotional depth.

Through a personal visual idiom that embraces unpredictability and expressive freedom, she invites viewers to engage not only with the artwork, but with their own internal responses. Colour is the driving force in Chroma, acting as both subject and medium. Woodward’s layered, performative process transforms each canvas into a dynamic space of interaction—between pigment and gesture, artist and viewer.

By titling her works with numerical codes alone, she consciously removes linguistic framing, encouraging unmediated encounters with the work. This strategy highlights her belief in the power of abstraction to resonate beyond words and speak directly to the body and mind.

Chroma is not only a celebration of colour and form, but also of presence and process. Each painting becomes a living entity—an extension of the artist's relationship with the world and an invitation for viewers to reflect on their own embodied experiences.
