New Publication
Stuart Murray - In Pubs.
Stuart’s work is highly observational with a
strong element of social commentary. Among the themes he has explored/is exploring
are gentrification, menial jobs and survival tactics, earning, homelessness and
begging, drinking and pub culture. An overall theme that emerges is that of ordinary
people trying to survive.

Most recent exhibition
EJ Major - Try To Do Things We All Can Understand
Artist and social scientist EJ Major will present four bodies of work from the four past years. In all, the driving concerns in the artists work remain constant: an exploration of the individual as a physical and psychological collage; a study of the ways in which we are simultaneously created and self-creating, of the way our worlds and our selves entwine.
