CHANGING ROOMS
6th – 27th June
Sharon Thomas and Le Liu would like to invite you to the preview of their upcoming exhibition ‘Changing Rooms’ at Studio Pavilion at House for an Art Lover, Glasgow on Saturday 6th June 5-8 pm.
Changing Rooms, is a new collaborative exhibition by visual artists Sharon Thomas and le Liu that challenges social and artistic boundaries observed as artists employing traditional techniques of painting within the Eastern and Western visual framework.
Supported by The Hunterian Museum, University of Glasgow a new body of work will be presented developed over an 18-month period studying the sketchbooks, paintings and Asian ceramics from the Estate of James McNeill Whistler.
This exhibition runs in parallel with the first monographic Exhibition of Whistler’s work in over thirty years at Tate Britain in London: James McNeill Whistler: 21May – 27 September 2026.
Sharing the process of painting works in varying formats, Liu and Thomas have created a new body of work which explores colour, paint and finish to create new spaces and places, offering new painterly surfaces that nod to both a western and eastern aesthetic.
This exhibition is kindly presented by the Studio Pavilion at House for an Art Lover in Bellahouston Park currently celebrating its 30-year anniversary.
This exhibition offers a one-off opportunity for collaboration, where a Glasgow audience can experience and witness a dual painting project between two experienced artists sharing a new forum to present their painting practice.
Glasgow International (GI) takes place in the city from 5-21 June 2026.
