Sarah Calleja Seeks to Explore Grand Harbour’s Allure in her Latest Exhibition

Sarah Calleja Seeks to Explore Grand Harbour’s Allure in her Latest Exhibition

The beauty of the Grand Harbour is unmatched. Artist Sarah Calleja is attempting to convey nostalgic emotion attached to the grand harbour and her grandmother’s wartime tales in her paintings by striving to capture its true essence. She made the decision to work with a limited colour palette, employing up to five colours in some pieces. In some instances, Calleja employed only one colour in her pieces, in order to depict a sense of nostalgia through the Grand Harbour and the convoy of Santa Maria.

Calleja aims to use water as a medium while without trying to control the colour in this watercolour adventure. Curated by Art Sweden, this art exhibition is vast and unique, with a myriad of different mediums used, including inks, watercolour, inks, charcoal, oil, pigments, and acrylics.

The exhibition will be held till 15 August at Il-Kamra ta’ Fuq, Mqabba.
