Summer Hang

The gallery has had a full summer refresh – finally stripped back and rehung with a brand new selection of work. If you're nearby, pop in and explore the exhibition in person. If not, you can still view everything online here.

The gallery is showcasing an incredible lineup including Shepard Fairey, Aryz, Joe Webb, Ange Bell, David Bray, Helen Beard, David Studwell, Abi Birkinshaw, Jean-Luc Almond, Carl Stimpson, David Shrigley, and many more – plus a few new pieces of mine that I’m excited to share.

Feel free to reach out with any questions about the artists or their work. I’ll be diving deeper into selected pieces over the coming weeks and months, so stay tuned.

Shepard Fairey
Shepard is a pioneering American street artist, graphic designer, and activist whose bold visual language has become synonymous with political resistance and cultural commentary. Best known for his iconic Obama HOPE poster and the Obey Giant campaign, Fairey’s work bridges fine art and street culture, often tackling urgent social issues with striking clarity. His latest trio of prints—God Save Abortion, Fractured, and Harmonious Elements—showcase the breadth of his activism and aesthetic:

God Save Abortion: Created in collaboration with Nadya Tolokonnikova of Pussy Riot, this print is a fierce response to abortion restrictions and a rallying cry for reproductive rights. Featuring provocative imagery and bold typography, it channels feminist defiance and supports Planned Parenthood.

Fractured: This piece reflects the fragmented nature of modern life and socio-political discourse. Inspired by the chaos and beauty of urban decay, Fairey uses torn textures and layered symbolism to explore duality, resilience, and transformation.

Harmonious Elements: Based on a mural in New Orleans, this print celebrates the healing power of art and music. With nods to local jazz legends and symbols of hope like the lotus flower, it’s a tribute to cultural harmony in the face of adversity.

Joe Webb
Joe Webb is a British collage artist whose work blends vintage imagery with surreal, thought-provoking themes. Known for his hand-cut collages sourced from retro magazines, Webb creates visual narratives that explore love, longing, and the human condition – often with a cosmic twist. His art invites viewers to reflect on their place in the universe, using bold juxtapositions and minimalist edits to spark deeper contemplation.

His latest print, Wish You Were Here, continues this tradition with striking elegance. Featuring vibrant striped deckchairs set against a glittering backdrop, the piece evokes nostalgia and escapism, while its title hints at emotional distance and desire. Available in a limited edition, the print is rendered with UV inks, silkscreen, and black diamond dust on heavyweight fine art paper, making it as tactile as it is visually captivating

David Studwell
David Studwell is a British contemporary artist and printmaker whose work channels the glamour, grit, and nostalgia of bygone eras. Drawing inspiration from the golden age of Hollywood, pop culture icons, and the legacy of Andy Warhol, Studwell’s screenprints are bold, vibrant, and technically precise—often finished with razor-sharp diamond dust for a touch of retro sparkle.

His print Spaceman is a striking limited edition screenprint rendered in metallic black and silver inks. With its solitary astronaut drifting against a stark cosmic backdrop, the piece evokes themes of isolation, exploration, and the human desire to transcend earthly bounds. It’s part of Studwell’s ongoing fascination with heroism and vulnerability, placing the viewer somewhere between nostalgia and the unknown.

David Bray
I’ve always had a deep admiration for David Bray’s work. For those unfamiliar, David is a British artist and illustrator celebrated for his finely detailed, emotionally resonant drawings—where the elegance of fine art meets the edge of graphic design. While the gallery proudly showcases his work year-round, I’m especially thrilled to present two new pieces for this upcoming show: Chips, an original drawing created on vintage book pages, and Good Times. Both offer a fresh glimpse into David’s evocative world.

Abi Birkinshaw
Abi Birkinshaw is a Cardiff-based painter and printmaker whose work explores the intimate terrain of lived experience. Drawing from her queer perspective, she weaves personal narratives into vivid, emotionally charged imagery. Her paintings delve into the entanglements of identity, memory, and loss, conjuring liminal worlds where the real and imagined entwine. Disembodied limbs, floating heads, and headless figures drift through ambiguous spaces, inviting viewers into a realm both haunting and tender.

We are delighted to show two of her monoprints; 'An Internet Woman' and 'A drawing of a woman from the internet (blue)'

Jean-Luc Almond
Jean-Luc Almond is a British painter whose haunting, layered portraits blur the line between beauty and decay. He is known for his visceral approach to painting – where faces emerge from thick, textured surfaces, often scraped, obscured, or partially erased. His process embraces both creation and destruction, resulting in works that feel unearthed rather than painted. His piece 'Untitled' is both beautiful and haunting.
