Beautiful art has an important place in the world - it lifts us up and inspires us; however, art should also challenge us to engage with important and sometimes difficult issues.

Current Exhibition
Drinking Down the Light
Cassandra Wall
curated by Jenny Blyth
Private View: September 5th, 6pm-8pm
The exhibition will run from 5 September – 25 September 2025
Cassandra Wall’s textile paintings are hand-stitched patchwork in cotton, colour-matched to her subject. Whilst acknowledging the origins of patchwork born out of thrift in 19th century America, she draws inspiration from Twentieth Century painters such as Agnes Martin and from Bauhaus pioneer of textile art and design, Anni Albers. Her artistic intention is firmly founded in her long standing Buddhist intention.
