Five moony crescents Featuring works by Henry Hu Opening night: Thursday 6 July, 6 - 8pm Exhibition open: Friday 7 - Sunday 17 July, 10am - 4pm Five moony crescents, an exhibition of new work by Henry Hu. Bringing together animation, paintings and photographs—this focused presentation highlights the artist’s continued interest in abstraction as a force that might signify life without directly defining it. Engaged with notions of mysticism, central to his practice is an enquiry into the spiritual end.

On February 6th 2023, Türkiye and Syria were struck by a catastrophic 7.8 magnitude earthquake, and subsequent aftershocks. An estimated 50,000 people lost their lives and millions are permanently displaced. Three months on, our hearts are still heavy, and it is important that we continue to campaign and raise awareness for the devastations that have taken place in Türkiye and Syria. With our wider community having family and friends in these areas, as well as experiencing vicarious pain from living in the diaspora, Mähallä will be hosting a fundraiser with proceeds donated to @Ahbap (Türkiye) and @estershelp (Syria).
