As time is not an object or substance we can touch or see, not just a dimension, a quantity or a concept, however it has many aspects and appears to represent different things to different people in diverse circumstances. Another way of looking at time is as the totality of three separate elements: past, present and future, while considering the past, living the moment though getting ready for the future/eternal life.

- The pendulum clock correspond to time plus how to catch the moment before it’s too late, yet it shows there is always brightness/hope at the end of the darkness.
- The wall mounted lighting represented by a halo or an aureole with rays of light in a circular shape yet a glowing disk symbolizing majesty or prominence of the soul.

The gallery’s non-hierarchical curation sits apart from the ephemerality of trends and focuses instead on the true aesthetic quality of the piece – alluring and timeless. Unlike others, Galerie Philia does not focus on a single style – whether minimalist, organic or raw – but rather embraces heterogeneity. The Galerie Philia takes pride in discovering new talents, providing them with multiple international platforms to showcase their latest creations.
