just foreplay
Exhibition opening May 14th, 6:30pm.

Exploring the interior experiences that inhabit our physical vessels. Five emerging artists form this exhibit, to distinct perspectives on the body and its connections to the external world. Sacrificing our flesh, we invite you to confront your preconceptions.
Intersecting queer and feminist ideologies, within the mediums of painting, photography, and sculpture.
Bespoke cocktails, locally distilled vodka, gin, and tonic will be provided at the opening event. A huge thank you to our sponsors at Woodward Distillery!
Thank you for joining Mia Hamilton at the opening of her exhibition Where did you go to my lovely, an exhibition of 10 years of quiet works.
Visit Mia in the gallery on Fridays 4 to 6pm, and weekends 12 to 4pm
Final day Sunday 26 April
“Turn your life on its head, leave your children and your people, sell your home and studio, and then receive a cancer diagnosis...
Through all of this, making has been my one constant.
The quiet works that make up this exhibition chart this period of my life.
Unlike the more commercial art I produced in my 40’s, these are deeply personal works that I hope you will feel as well as see.”
See you there!

the coolest night of my life!! Thank you to everyone who came to the opening of feast, and to @ileggataround for capturing the evening so beautifully!! I have such talented friends!! Can’t wait to share more with you all xx
Thank you to everyone who came to the opening of Meg Rea’s exhibition “Feast”.
“Feast” is open until Sunday 12 April 2026
Visit Meg in the gallery between 10am - 3pm, on Fridays, Saturdays and & Sundays.
In creating these works in multimedia and ceramics, Meg has sought to create playful and functional forms that encourage tactility and interaction.
Taking inspiration from the transience in connection over an evening sustained by food and company, Meg’s work evokes feelings of shifting from relative structure and formality to comfort, and intimacy.
Meg has designed and made a series of platters, vessels and sculptures to present food, flowers and candles upon, and has fashioned food sculptures (both real and modelled from clay), to compliment these pieces and elicit a feeling of change throughout the evening.
See you there!

Final weekend to see Carol Camden’s Worlds of Whimsy!
Open this Sat & Sun 11am to 3pm
Artist’s statement
“These dioramas reflect some of my most treasured places and spaces. They offer peace, solace and an escape from this turbulent world.
The majority of these worlds come to life inside of old tea boxes (that my late father Tom Camden collected over a lifetime). He was a passionate recycler, reuser and fixer upperer, as am I.
The decorations and treasures inside I have collected, found, made and been gifted.”
See you there!

Final weekend to catch Fiona Christeller’s exhibition What can’t be left
Friday 2 to 6pm, Saturday and Sunday 11am to 4pm.
Closing Sunday 15 March.
Fiona’s artworks celebrate the reminders, particularly foraged and found materials.
Fiona has collected them from around the world, her local environment and workshop, and transformed them into works of art.
Together they become a piece of wall art, where the individual items of jewellery can be removed and worn, or enjoyed as a whole.
After a successful career as an architect Fiona decided to follow a long-term desire to make contemporary jewellery and small 3-dimensional objects.
She uses storytelling, often of social issues, to inform her jewellery.
We look forward to seeing you!
