Zara Muse British , b. 1970
Zara (Alexandra Johnson) has developed a unique and impressive technique using a palette knife and spatula to create her masterpieces. This method allows her to infuse her artwork with texture and depth, giving her paintings a distinctive three-dimensional quality that draws viewers into her world. Her art revolves around themes of nature, emotions, and human connection, employing a rich color palette to express female beauty and evoke deep emotions.
Zara’s career has soared with her recent solo shows, exhibitions and celebrity collectors.
Despite her successful career in finance, Zara’s heart has always been in art. Even during her early days as a trader in the City of London, she was captivated by the graffiti art scene, admiring its raw expression and creativity. This fascination grew as she collected pieces by artists like Banksy, which eventually inspired her own artistic journey. Today, Zara’s transition from finance to fine art is a testament to her passion and resilience, making her a respected figure in both the art and financial communities.

27 August – 17 September 2025
Eclectic Gallery is proud to announce its upcoming exhibition, Her Gaze, on view from 27 August to 17 September 2025.
This international group exhibition explores the theme of the feminine gaze through painting and sculpture, reflecting on how women are seen, interpreted, and celebrated in contemporary art. The works brought together highlight strength, sensitivity, and complexity, offering perspectives that are at once personal and universal.
The exhibition features paintings by Kristel Bechara, Roberta Diazzi, Salva Ginard, Ieren Hoff, Victoria Horkan, Zara Muse, Olga Rykova, and Socrates. Each artist brings a distinctive vision, using colour, form, and narrative to reveal facets of identity, resilience, and beauty.
Complementing these works are sculptures by Andrea Serra, Martic, Matteo Maruo, Nimrod Messeg, and Nonos. Their mastery of material and form adds dimensionality, with pieces that convey movement, balance, and contemplation.
Together, these artists create a dialogue that defines Her Gaze — an exhibition that celebrates diversity of vision while uniting around the shared theme of perception and presence.
