What do grief, loss, and healing look like when they take shape as art?


Meeting Rapha is a curated group exhibition that explores these questions , not with easy answers, but with honesty, depth, and care. Six artists have brought their grief, their faith, and their creative voice together to create a space where what is often carried in silence can finally be witnessed.


Inspired by the name Jehovah Rapha — "The Lord Who Heals" — this exhibition is an invitation to encounter healing not as a destination, but as a journey. One that begins with the courage to look at what we've lost.
