SLA Gallery is proud to present Between Stillness and Motion, an exhibition featuring new and selected works by Peter Pacheco and Rasa Valiene—two artists whose distinct practices converge in their shared pursuit of emotional resonance, sensory depth, and the articulation of inner worlds. The exhibition invites visitors to experience the unique yet interconnected ways in which both artists translate inner emotion and lived experience into color, rhythm, and form.
A Shared Vision
Though their techniques and backgrounds diverge, Peter Pacheco and Rasa Valiene share a deep commitment to exploring the boundaries between emotion and perception, solitude and connection. Both artists transform their personal experiences into meditations on the universal aspects of human existence. In Pacheco’s case, the solitude of his studio becomes a place of emotional revelation, where light and color embody the rhythms of the inner life. For Valiene, color and pattern serve as gateways to transcendence, inviting the viewer into a space where feeling and vision are one.
Together, their works create a conversation across differences—between introspection and exuberance, sound and silence, order and improvisation. The exhibition at SLA Gallery celebrates this dialogue, offering an encounter that is both contemplative and alive with movement. Between Stillness and Motion reminds us that art’s truest power lies in its ability to bridge inner experience and shared understanding—to connect, to move, and to transform.
