Llael McDonald

Following the success of her debut solo exhibition at Compendium Gallery, we are thrilled to welcome Llael McDonald back for her second show, Lambent. Named after a word meaning "softly glowing", the exhibition continues her poetic exploration of still life through symbolism, rich colour, and quiet intensity. Lemons reappear as central motifs; twisted in martinis, hand-peeled, or served with tea, alongside her signature oysters, all rendered with moody lighting and painterly depth. Each piece invites viewers to pause and find beauty in everyday rituals.
