Anna Asbury Debuts Solo Exhibition at Agora Gallery, New York City

April 2024 | Chelsea, NYC

In April 2024, artist Anna Asbury presented her debut solo exhibition at Agora Gallery in Chelsea, New York City, one of the world’s most influential contemporary art districts. The exhibition marked a significant milestone in Asbury’s career, unveiling a cohesive body of work created through a year-long commitment to daily artistic and spiritual practice.

Over the course of 365 consecutive days, Asbury produced one original watercolor painting per day, each accompanied by a written reflection. This disciplined process was rooted in intentional stillness, prayer, and reflection, allowing space for creative growth, transformation, and deeper listening. What began as a personal devotional practice evolved into an expansive collection that documents a year of faith, presence, and artistic development.

The exhibition brought these daily works together as a unified visual narrative, offering viewers an intimate glimpse into the power of consistency and calling. Through layered washes of color and contemplative themes, the collection explored surrender, trust, and the quiet beauty found in faithful practice.

Presented at Agora Gallery, an institution known for its dedication to creative excellence and its support of emerging and established artists, the exhibition was met with strong engagement and acclaim. Asbury’s debut highlighted the intersection of faith and fine art, affirming the transformative potential of showing up daily to both craft and conviction.
