Remain Calm

Jaye Alison

In a world that often feels fractured and uncertain, remain calm is both a personal journey and an invitation. This exhibition is the result of Alison’s exploration of how we process turbulence, hold on to meaning, and find moments of clarity through creative expression. Each work reflects an emotional rhythm: sometimes frenetic, sometimes meditative, always seeking equilibrium.

Drawing from personal memories, dreams, and the layered textures of daily life, the pieces, selective works from several series,  trace a path through disorientation toward reconnection. Elements of landscape, domesticity and the body emerge, dissolve, recreate and reemerge, echoing the instability of life while quietly pointing toward resilience.

At its core, remain calm is about presence— choosing to engage, reflect, and transform rather than retreat. These works are a visual journal of that process: playful yet grounded, vulnerable yet composed. In sharing them, Alison hopes to create space for collective pause, where viewers might sense their own stories in the textures and tensions of the work—and, perhaps, leave with a renewed sense of calm.
