Fifty Tiny Reminders: A Celebration of Beautiful Ordinary Things

New York, NY – May 17, 2025 – Lately, it feels like the world is tightening its grip—financial anxiety looms, political instability swells, and the future feels more uncertain than ever. It’s easy to believe that life only grows heavier, that the small joys we once took for granted are slipping through our fingers. That’s exactly why NYC-based artist Samia Fakih has spent the last eight months painting the little things that make life feel light again—fifty miniature paintings, each a quiet reminder that beauty still exists in the ordinary.
Each mini-painting—which are around four to six inches approximately—is a celebration of light, form, and the sweetness of everyday life. Whether it’s the way light bounces off a slice of cake, the shifting colors in the reflections of fruit, or the simple joy of a single, lonely flower, these works serve as an invitation to pause and take in the beauty that surrounds us. The gallery will be transformed into a bright, glowing space filled with these tiny moments, a place to rest your eyes and remember that even in uncertain times, softness still exists.
In an effort to make art more accessible, these paintings are priced starting at $100—carefully considered to reflect the time and care put into each piece while remaining within reach for those who wish to bring one home. But whether you’re looking to collect or simply want to wander through a space filled with tiny, beautiful things, this show is for you.
