We are delighted to announce that The Darkest Night, Sheila Naughton's first solo exhibition at the Olivier Cornet Gallery will run from 15th November to 3rd December 2022. 


It will be officially launched at 6:30pm on Thursday 17 November by Valeria Ceregini, international visual arts curator and historian.
