The Edit Gallery is thrilled to announce ‘How Did I Get Here?’, the second solo exhibition in Cyprus by British contemporary artist Alec Cumming. Known for his vibrant, multifaceted painting style, Cumming continues to explore the dynamic intersection of abstraction and figuration while introducing an evolved perspective in this latest body of work.
The exhibition highlights Cumming’s signature celebration of life, now complemented by a fresh focus on isolated moments and details. Smaller oil-on-canvas works draw attention to fragments from his larger compositions, while expansive pieces integrate abstract and figurative elements, subtly revealing the human form.
