Artbooth Gallery is pleased to announce Threshold, a solo exhibition by Irish painter Richard Hearns, on view from November 6 through December 6, 2025. This marks Hearns’ first solo exhibition in the UAE, presenting a body of work that reflects his ongoing exploration of gesture, memory, and place.

Working from his studio in the Burren, County Clare, Ireland, Richard Hearns is celebrated for both his figurative still life paintings and large scale gestural abstractions. His practice is rooted in physicality and mark making that seeks connection, vitality, and the presence of life energy. Balancing discipline with spontaneity, his paintings combine structured compositions with bold gestures, where charcoal lines carve space and prismatic color opens realms of possibility.
