The Waiting Room

"The Waiting Room" is Hettie Inniss's solo exhibition of new paintings that illuminate her belief in “Black Fluidity” and explore the shifting nature of identity. GRIMM, Keizersgracht 241, Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Runs October 24-December 6, 2025.
Exhibition Description
The exhibition features paintings that evoke interiors, architectural elements, or liminal spaces suffused with dispersed light and vibrant, fleshy hues. It’s a show about what remains when memory is filtered through the senses, and how identity can be understood as fluid and multidimensional. Working from sensory cues—especially scent—Inniss tries to render what memory feels like: how light behind closed eyes appears, how atmosphere lingers, how emotional resonance remains even when clarity fades.
