Wild Alchemy brings together two contemporary artists, Justin Gilday and Pari Aazami, in a captivating new exhibition at Natasha Pearl Gallery, a countryside gallery and framing studio near Canterbury.
Inspired by the hidden beauty of the natural world, the exhibition explores the extraordinary detail found in insects, trees, lichen, bark and other organic forms. Justin Gilday’s intricate silver sculptures capture tiny creatures and natural curiosities with remarkable delicacy, while Pari Aazami’s richly layered works magnify the textures, patterns and colours of trees and lichen through gilding, surface detail and light.
Together, their work transforms the familiar into something quietly astonishing. Small details become luminous, sculptural and full of presence, inviting visitors to slow down, look closely and rediscover the beauty often missed in everyday surroundings.
Join Natasha Pearl Gallery for the opening night on Friday 5 June 2026, from 5:30pm to 7:30pm. Enjoy art, bubbles, nibbles and conversation, meet the artists and be among the first to explore this atmospheric summer exhibition in one of Kent’s hidden creative gems.
The exhibition runs until Thursday 2 July 2026. Free entry. Everyone welcome.
