The eyes might be described as the windows to the soul, offering glimpses into our innermost thoughts and feelings, but the face truly serves as the canvas where the most profound stories of our lives are revealed. Every moment we experience, the memories we hold, and even the deepest emotional or physical scars we bear, leave not only visible marks in our expression but create invisible layers embedded within our spirit.
Modern Eden Gallery warmly invites you to delve into these narratives with their latest exhibition, The Portrait Show 13: Magic. How could I not share this on Friday then 13th, especially given this new collection embraces the very theme of magic.
Take a trip down memory lane and view past and present exhibitions in their entirety as well as available inventory by visiting Modern Eden Gallery’s website.




Modern Eden Gallery Press Release //
Magic is woven into the fabric of our world—found in whispered spells, sacred rituals, cosmic forces, and the quiet mysteries of nature. It exists in the liminal spaces between the known and the unknown, in ancient symbols and modern technology, in the hands of mystics, seers, witches, and wanderers.
For this year’s Portrait Show, we invite artists to explore magic in all its forms—from esoteric traditions and occult practices to elemental energies and everyday enchantments. Portraiture offers a portal into the unseen, a way to capture the spirit of the magician, the alchemist, the oracle, the healer, the enchanter, or the unknowable power itself.
Whether inspired by folklore, historical figures, personal visions, or the forces of nature, bring forth a portrait that channels the mystical.
