The International Group Art Exhibition “Kaleidoscope: Small Worlds” in collaboration with Art Mozaik Fine Art Gallery (713 Canyon Road, Santa Fe, NM 87501, USA) and JS Gallery, opens on September 2, 2025. Curator: Julia Sysalova | Assistant Curator: Oxana Akopov
SANTA FE, N.M. – How much can fit into a small space? A memory, a sensation, a landscape of the soul. Kaleidoscope: Small Worlds brings together 35 emerging artists from 16 countries — including the USA, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, Netherlands, Greece, Finland, Russia, Armenia, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Kyrgyzstan, Cyprus, Czech Republic, and New Zealand — each offering a personal fragment of a wider mosaic.
The exhibition invites visitors to see the world through a more thoughtful and intimate lens. Small and medium formats become a way to speak of universal themes: personal and cultural memory, sensations, inner landscapes, identity, belonging, and the subtle vibrations of time and space. Working in painting, collage, photography, and mixed media, the participating artists compose a visual polyphony — a shared rhythm born of difference.
“Each fragment holds a world, a story, a bridge between cultures,” says curator Julia Sysalova. “This global project unites artists, showing how small works can form a powerful, collective artistic statement.”
Participating artists: Oxana Akopov (USA), Alina Altukhova (USA), Veronika Arto (Germany), Asia Aveli (Kyrgyzstan), Gala Bushido (France), Patricia Demba (Greece), Consonance Ebb (USA), Svetlana Fenster (Cyprus), Julia Flit (UK), Natasha Freeman (Russia), Anastasia Gofman (USA), Svetlana Hants (USA), Olga Horne (New Zealand), Olga Ivkin (USA), Alana Joy (USA), Casey Kallos (USA), Elmira Kandy (Kazakhstan), Nina Kruser (Germany), Elena Kuki (USA), Ksenia Mazheyko (Spain), Irina Metz (Armenia), Kseniia Nelasova (USA), Veronika Obushikhina (Spain), Alina Obukhova (USA), Nataliia Ovcharova (USA), Lana Reiber (USA), Alena Rezanova (USA), Anastasiia Romanova (Czech Republic), Veera Romanoff (Finland), Regina Sultanova (USA), Larisa Travina & Anton Mashanov (USA), Vic Tur (USA), Inna Voronov (USA), Yuliyu Zadorozhnyuk (Ukraine/Netherlands), Dina Zakmane (Latvia).
