Salon 21 is pleased to present “Soft Spaces: Femininity, Culture & Comfort,” a joint exhibition by artists Charlotte Hailstone and Mia Dunn, opening to the public on Wednesday, February 5, 2025. In “Soft Spaces: Femininity, Culture & Comfort,” the two artists transform Salon 21 into a dreamworld merging adulthood with the essence of girlhood, drawing from nostalgia, culture, and the feminine experience. This immersive installation blends fine art with home décor, evoking the playful innocence of childhood, while addressing the complexities of adult life. The space unfolds like a vibrant clubhouse, where color-field-inspired works meet whimsical objects designed to comfort and delight. Through their respective cultural backgrounds, Dunn and Hailstone craft an environment where viewers are invited to reconnect with their inner child, blurring the boundaries between personal memories and contemporary aesthetics. This exhibition bridges the gap between home and imagination, inviting visitors to explore the delicate balance between nostalgia and modernity, creating a sanctuary of comfort, whimsy, and reflection.
