Through Love Art Exhibition

About Through Love Art Exhibition
This September, Magdalen Road Studios will host a deeply moving exhibition that celebrates the life and legacy of much-loved Oxford social worker and mother-of-three, Ana Arroyave.
Exactly five years after her untimely death, Through Love opens on Friday 5 September, presenting a body of work by Ana’s sister, the established artist Maria Arroyave. Through a series of mixed media and collage paintings, Maria explores her own journey of grief, turning personal loss into art with purpose.
The exhibition not only honours Ana but also raises funds for SeeSaw, the Oxfordshire charity supporting children and young people through grief, and the Stroke Association.
Ana Arroyave was born in Oxford in 1967, educated at Rye St Anthony School in Headington, and later studied Social Work at Ruskin College. She dedicated her career to Oxfordshire communities, working in education and mental health services, as well as being a yoga teacher and Relax Kids coach. She lived in Jericho with her husband and three children until her passing in 2020.
The exhibition will feature three themed collections: Through Love, inspired by Rumi’s poetry; Immersed in Nature, celebrating the healing power of the natural world; and Power of 3, exploring sibling connection. A special affirmation painting — “In Hope I Stand Fearless, In Hope I Stand Transformed” — has also been created, with limited-edition prints on sale to support the chosen charities.
