Untitled Art Fair, Houston: Shuling Guo
September 18 - 21, 2025
Laura (the gallery) is pleased to present a solo exhibition of new paintings by Chinese born, Philadelphia based artist Shuling Guo (b. 1986, Chao’An, China) on the occasion of Untitled Art Fair’s inaugural Houston edition—her first show with the gallery and in Texas. Guo’s practice, shaped by years living aboard a sailboat, translates the mutable elements of sea and sky into compositions suspended between figuration and abstraction, recalling Rothko’s atmospheres, Hilma af Klint’s spiritual geometries, and Agnes Martin’s meditative restraint.
Since the birth of her daughter in 2022, her work has shifted from oceanic expanses toward an earthbound engagement with flora, foliage, and trees, infused with the embodied experiences of pregnancy, postpartum, and motherhood. Layering colored pencil over liquid washes of oil on linen, she creates glowing surfaces where medallion-like orbs track her daughter’s growth and her own evolving identity, invoking Chinese temple iconography, ancestral veneration, and the felt presence of her late grandmother. Across ocean and earth, body and spirit, Guo’s paintings emerge as contemporary altarpieces that chart cycles of life, loss, and renewal, inviting viewers into a contemplative space suffused with light.
Gerardo Rosales: El Bosque
July 12 - August 23, 2025
El Bosque is a solo exhibition by Houston-based, Venezuelan-born artist Gerardo Rosales, featuring new paintings that navigate the entangled realms of queer solitude, desire, and ecological refuge. In Rosales’s lushly patterned worlds, hybrid creatures—part human, part animal—emerge from vibrant fields of flora and ornament, while serpentine forms wind through dense compositions like maps of cruising paths and life’s nonlinear journey. Drawing from Latin American craft traditions, Gio Ponti’s architectural geometry, and the codified aesthetics of queer subculture, El Bosque invites viewers into a forest of symbols where beauty camouflages critique and myth becomes a mode of survival.
Chang Sujung: Alteration
April 26 - June 14, 2025

Laura (the gallery) is pleased to present Alteration, a solo exhibition by New York–based artist Chang Sujung, featuring new works that synthesize plein air paintings and the sculptural language of textiles made between the architectural density of Midtown Manhattan and the living, improvisational rhythms of Central Park. Taking its title from a musical term denoting chromatic deviation—and from the tailoring vernacular of adjustment—Alteration reflects on the labor of becoming: of garments modified, chords bent, and identities recut within shifting social and linguistic fabrics.
Christine Egaña Navin: Hot Swap
February 1 - March 16, 2025
Laura is pleased to announce our first solo exhibition with Christine Egaña Navin. Comprising an 11-channel video installation, the exhibition positions technology as both protagonist and paradox, exploring the recursive systems that mediate our experience of energy, power, and representation.

Laura is pleased to announce our participation in NADA Miami 2024. The gallery will present a solo booth of works by Keiko Moriuchi (b. 1943, Osaka, Japan). Now 81 years old, Moriuchi was the last member accepted to join Gutai, Japan’s preeminent post-war avant-garde art group. She is one of Gutai’s few surviving members, and the sole member personally recruited by founder Jiro Yoshihara. Moriuchi’s showing at NADA Miami represents the artist’s debut in the United States.
The Antenna Show
September 19 - November 27, 2024
The Antenna Show is about frequencies, feelers, and feelings. The exhibition's works of art channel the acute sensitivity of antennae, framing them as conduits for perception and energy. The works of Emily Cheng, larí garcía, Iva Kinnaird, Umico Niwa, and Sarah Pettitt not only receive signals, as antennae do, but dispatch them. Thus, the works of art together become an array of conductors that participate in cycles of sensation and transmission. These five artists respectively tune into spiritual, paranormal, insectoid, and botanical frequencies.
Moon Eats the Sun
April 13, 2024 - August 24, 2024
A group exhibition about eclipse, and human perception of the celestial event. Artists: Celeste, Saúl Hernández-Vargas, Julie Malen, Kian Mckeown, Ernesto Solana, and Alexis Zambrano.
