Coming Home

In the organizer's words:

Melissa Gile and Lauren E. Godfrey are proud to present "Coming Home” an art exhibition exploring the connections between nature, memory, and the concept of home. Running from 06.02.25 to 09.02.25 at Satellit Pop-Up-Space, Mönckebergstrasse 3, this exhibition invites viewers on a journey through floral imagery and deeply personal narratives that celebrate the beauty of belonging.

Featuring the works of Melissa Gile and Lauren E. Godfrey the exhibition showcases a stunning array of mediums, including paintings, sculpture, and botanical installations, each infused with themes of roots, growth, and sanctuary. The delicate interplay between blooming flowers and symbolic storytelling captures the universal longing for connection and the solace of returning to one’s origins.

Melissa Gile is a multimedia artist and designer working from her home studio in Hamburg, Germany. Originally from Seattle, her work draws deeply from her mental health journey and the process of discovering sanctuary within herself, exploring the delicate threads that connect memory, safety, and belonging. With luminous colors and natural, sensory-rich elements, her creations both captivate and soothe, inviting you to slow down and escape into a dream of your own.

Lauren E. Godfrey, an American painter, mother, and nature lover living in Hamburg, Germany, invites you into her secret garden – a space brimming with magic and mystery, where creativity blossoms without bounds. In her vibrant and dynamic works, she portrays a dream-like reality, weaving together mystical landscapes, ethereal figures, and glimpses of her surroundings into a harmonious dance.

Visitors will leave with a renewed appreciation for the beauty of home and the stories it holds. Admission is free with an opening reception on Thursday, 06.02.25, 6:30-9pm. For more information or private viewings, please contact lauren@laurengodfreyart.com or melissa.gile.fineart@gmail.com.
