Building on the London Festival of Architecture's 2026 theme of 'Belonging', Velorose's inaugural summer show entitled (BE)LONGING will feature works of art and architecture that explore how individuals are drawn together through shared environments, atmospheres and instincts.

The exhibition considers the themes of Being, Longing and Belonging - being in-between, untethered, distanced, or displaced; our universal search for a sense of stability within unfamiliar landscapes.

(BE)LONGING also coincides with Pride in London,Trans Pride and Black Pride; how do art and architecture generate connection, pause, and recognition of difference within shared spaces?

The show is open to all.

Launch Event

Thursday 25 June

Join us on Thursday 25 June 6pm - 9pm to celebrate the diversity, variety and quality of the many works of art and architecture inspired by Being, Longing, and Belonging on display, as drawings, prints, collage, paintings, ceramics, film, projection and sculpture sit cheek by jowl. Artworks will be for sale, drinks are free!
