Overview

Lehmann Maupin is pleased to present My time here is brief, an exhibition of new paintings by British artist Freya Douglas-Morris and her first since joining the gallery’s program in January.  In a series of ethereal landscapes, My time here is brief emulates the familiar patterns of nature—from the changing of seasons to the rhythms of day and night. Across the exhibition, quiet inlets, moon-filled lakes, small saplings, and abundant foliage seem to unfold seamlessly from one to the next, building a new yet coherent world where water, sky, shoreline, and horizon line merge. The exhibition precedes Douglas-Morris’s first solo show with the gallery in New York, which will debut in Spring 2027.
