All Exhibitions

We host exhibitions as a vital extension of its studio practice, offering visitors direct access to diverse artistic perspectives and contemporary visual discourse. As a working studio, Shunno fosters experimentation, dialogue, and process-driven creation; its exhibition program brings these values into the public sphere by presenting works that challenge perceptions, inspire reflection, and encourage meaningful engagement with art. Through solo and group showcases, Shunno provides a platform for emerging and established artists alike, creating an environment where ideas circulate freely and audiences encounter art in an open, thoughtful setting.

Tracing the Distance

Tracing the Distance explores the fluidity of memory, history, and identity, mapping the spaces between past and present, permanence and impermanence. This exhibition contemplates how fleeting moments are preserved through artistic expression, transforming personal and collective experiences into evolving narratives. Art becomes a bridge—tracing the distance between time and memory, self and community, the ephemeral and the eternal.

Noncelestial Optics

Shunno Art Space is pleased to present Noncelestial Optics, a three-part exhibition featuring the drawings and constructions of renowned artist, writer, and critic Mustafa Zaman. On view from 6 to 21 January 2023, the exhibition offers an engaging encounter with Zaman’s distinctive visual language. Widely admired by younger audiences for his thought-provoking practice, Mustafa brings together a body of work that invites viewers to explore alternative ways of seeing and interpreting the world.

Abayab

A solo exhibition by Fahim Chowdhury, on view from 11 to 25 November 2022. Known for his commitment to verisimilitude, Fahim builds each portrait on a clear likeness, exploring the subtleties of personality and the quiet force of human expression. During the pandemic, with direct encounters restricted, he shifted to digital communication, working solely from photographs shared by people he knew. The series embodies his sustained passion for portraiture and his thoughtful response to a changed social reality.

Meta-Real

Meta-Real is a walkthrough exchange exhibition jointly presented by Dwip Gallery and Shunno Art Space. Conceived as a mutual takeover, the initiative invited each gallery to occupy the other’s space and showcase selections from their own collections. This cross-exchange created a dynamic flow of audiences between the two venues, encouraging visitors to encounter new contexts, expanded perspectives, and an interwoven experience of both artistic communities.

Disruptive Transit

Disruptive Transit invokes an equally experimental spirit, distinguished by its exploration of printmaking as an established yet continually unfolding artistic medium. The initiative centered on using print techniques to probe the conscious and subconscious mind, encouraging new ways of thinking through process and material.

The exhibition presented the outcomes of a weeklong experiment by four artists from diverse creative backgrounds—ceramics, painting, sculpture, and photography—who engaged with printmaking outside their primary practices. Their works revealed how unfamiliarity with the medium can open unexpected pathways, allowing non-printmakers to reinterpret technique, texture, and form through fresh, intuitive approaches.

Transference

Transference presents a selection of experimental works created at Shunno over the past six months, where artists explored traditional and unconventional printmaking methods to translate emotion, memory, and intuitive process into visual form. Moving between intention and accident, the eight participating artists pushed beyond familiar boundaries to engage with the subconscious and the subtextual. The exhibition reflects a period of sustained studio inquiry, shaped by overlapping techniques and the fluid exchange of ideas. Transference invites viewers to experience these encounters of method and mind, where creative impulses shift, merge, and take new shape.
