OFFLINE

Gallery Les Bois is a new sustainable gallery platform based in London, committed to showcasing artists whose work engages deeply with environmental and social themes. Rooted in a belief that contemporary art can help reshape how we think about materials, meaning and impact, the gallery works across both physical and digital spaces to bring urgent, thought-provoking work to collectors and the public.

OFFLINE is a group exhibition exploring the intersection of environmental fragility, digital saturation and human displacement. At its centre is Offline, a powerful body of work by Dutch-Colombian artist duo Volcan, first exhibited at the 60th Venice Biennale (Republic of Cameroon Pavilion). Their Refugee Remembrance Wall presents haunting portraits marked by incomplete charging circles and blurred identities, representing interrupted lives and fractured visibility. Their Roadworks series continues this narrative, transforming salvaged urban materials into layered reflections on sustainability, infrastructure, memory and place.

Alongside Volcan, the exhibition features work by Steve Foster, Oliver Tanay, Miranda Carter and Jasmine Pradissitto. Each artist brings a distinct but complementary approach to sustainable practice, whether through air-purifying sculpture, reclaimed ceramics, or painting grounded in ecological sensitivity and material care. Together, these artists present a vision of art as both witness and action, inviting us to reconnect with what is at risk: memory, material and meaning.
