Impressions From The Sea
2025-12-04 19:00 - 21:00 | Banca Giuratale, Pjazza Indipendenza, Victoria, Gozo, Malta
“Impressions from the Sea” is a visual diary of my artistic journey—an exploration of colours, textures, and techniques that gradually led me to discover my own language of expression.
The sea has always been my greatest muse. Its endlessly shifting colours, subtle shades, dramatic lights, and rhythmic movements transform it into something almost alive—an omnipresent, vivid being. Over the past eight years living on the island of Gozo, I have breathed with the sea daily. Watching it, meditating by it, and snorkelling in its depths have deepened my connection with this powerful element.
Coming from Łódź in Poland, a city far from the coast, I saw the sea only twice as a child. Here in Gozo, surrounded by Mediterranean beauty, I found the perfect environment to dive deeper into the development of my own artistic style.
I hope you will enjoy this exhibition as much as I enjoyed creating it. Each painting represents both joy and challenge as I attempted to capture the diversity and splendour of the sea.
The second part of the exhibition focuses on human expressions—portraits that explore personality and emotion. You will even find a special tribute to my beloved ginger cat, “Cippollino”.
Enjoy the exhibition, and feel free to share your impressions.

Book Launch: Tide of War
2025-12-05 19:30 - 21:00 | Arthall Gozo, 8, triq Agius de Soldanis, Victoria, VCT 1265, Malta
As war looms in the Persian Gulf, duty, honour, and humanity are tested in the harsh light of the desert. November 1990. Coalition forces gather in Saudi Arabia on the eve of Desert Storm. Amid the tension and uncertainty, a small covert team is assembled for a mission that could alter the course of history. As Captain Dillon Bombi prepares a newly formed unit for a mission deep into hostile territory, he faces questions as never before—about his orders, his team, and his own conscience. Sergeant Luke Shoalwater, battle-tested and fiercely loyal, is the only one Dillon knows he can trust. Miriam, a civilian medic thrust into the chaos of covert war, must confront her past and the risks of compassion. And Sergeant Mo al-Asadi, a Royal Marine, must weigh the cost—not only to himself, but to his family.
Authentic, relentless, and deeply human, Tide of War explores the unseen battles soldiers fight within themselves when duty and morality collide—and when the greatest threat may come from within.
Andy Young will be at the gallery to present his book, followed by a book signing. He is a retired U.S. Army officer currently living in Malta. He is a life member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the Reserve Organization of America, and is a member of Rotary International.
