YARA + DAVINA’s current commissions:
Everything We Love We Will Lose
We are excited to finally share that we have been busy working on a new exhibition opening in April that explores the relationship between grief and gratitude.
Everything We Love We Will Lose will open on the 18th April at the Lightbox Gallery in woking and is commissioned in partnership between the Lightbox Gallery and Clandon Park, The National Trust.
Be The Change You Want to See
We are still working on Be The Change You Want to See, UP Projects and Elysian Residencies, Blackheath, London. We are exploring how we embrace and process change, using semaphore and the art of communicating with flags!
ORACLES:
Since April 2025 we have been working with Prof. Emily Selove, Associate Professor in Medieval Arabia Language and Literature and the Arts and Culture team, both at the University of Exeter (UoE) and national arts agency: Arts + Heritage on a speculative project linked to our ORACLES card deck. This project has been made possible thanks to a UKRI Impact Cultivation Fund.
