Janice Thurston has a deep love for nature and in particular the rolling hills of the South Downs; this is apparent in her distinctive, undulating paintings in Sussex Landscapes and more. They are restful yet evocative, and her paintings draw you into those parts of Sussex that are truly hidden gems. Her work is influenced […]
Cecilia Buchanan mainly sculpts in clay, preferring to work quickly, keeping a free texture, aiming to retain the energy and freshness of the piece. Her early career was as a ballet dancer so poise and line are important to her, but with a sense of humour or quirkiness.
Scenes of dramatic coastlines painted by Vanessa Gardiner.
The work of Olivia Bax is often characterised by familiar elements such as a hook, handle or vessel presented in unconventional, coloured forms. However, it is the texture of the surface which offers the viewer the most immediate insight. Bax generates her own paper pulp to cover and form a mantle over linear armatures. Moulding […]

For Rabbrexit Means Rabbrexit, Shih created a series of ‘relics’ from the UK’s imaginary rabbit population, including large-scale embroidered epics, newly minted 52p and 48p coins and aeroplane landing […]

The title of the exhibition, ‘Original State of Mind’, relates to the unique position that Zhou Li occupies when making art.
