Awakening the Mind and the Body
One can sense the energetic shifts that awaken perceptions when viewing Jules Allan's paintings. They starkly remind us that art plays on the conscious and unconscious mind. Jules' dual practices as an artist and art psychotherapist, without doubt, inform one another.
With Land, Skye and Sea
Patricia Shone was born in Scotland and moved to South Devon as a child. She first encountered clay at school there. After studying ceramics in London, finances and a first love of cooking led her to work as a chef in the UK and Italy. She returned to the country of her birth, drawn to the Isle of Skye, where she has been dedicated to ceramics for nearly three decades
We just want to have fun!
A French artist who naturally encapsulates fun in her works is Mélanie Bourget. Her sculptures are an exploration of human expression. With great skill, she creates figurative pieces in a contemporary yet offbeat style. Her art conjures feelings of fun and joy.
Flight of the Langoustine at KMA
We are honoured to be the partner gallery for the Hove Plinth's Flight of the Langoustine created by sculptor Pierre Diamantopoulo MRSS. The ambitious community art project is the brainchild of the Hove Civic Society.
Colours of The Seasons
Internationally recognised ceramicist Maria ten Kortenaar started her creative path as a goldsmith, but once she encountered clay in 1995, she became devoted to porcelain.
Flight of the BirdMen
My practice is an exploration—always. I don't feel any particular need to continue down one path for years and years. I feel the need always to be making new work, breaking new ground, making something interesting to me, that is exciting to me, that fulfils my need to create things with faith, that everything feeds into everything else.
Conversations
Su Jameson's new collection 'Conversations' explores the connections and complexities of being human and the tools we use to communicate.
Celebrating the life of Adela Powell
