In Stay Longer, Chantal Khoury presents paintings centered on domestic table scenes—dining rooms, coffee tables, and gatherings that evoke fleeting memories. Repeated motifs like cups, dishes, and peacocks serve as visual echoes of inherited experience. Her fluid, gestural technique emphasizes movement and impermanence, exploring how memories and identity shift through time. Each work becomes a vessel holding moments that resist permanence yet continue to inform the present.
