WE HAVE A VENUE!! We met with the lovely folk over and have decided to use their gorgeous space on the iconic Portobello Road to host this year’s REJECTS exhibition! The Bakery is an artist run gallery space, the artists and Kate who runs it are the loveliest people, so after a long run of unfortunate events (being ghosted & messed about by venues) I am feeling super happy and positive about this!

Applications for REJECTS are open until the 2nd of June. Apply via curator space, link in profile.

The exhibition will be from the 18-28 June.

Hampstead AAF went off with a bang last night, it’s such a beautiful fair right on the Heath. It was wonderful meeting new collectors, catching up with familiar faces, and seeing so many pieces find their new homes :)

I can’t wait to see what the rest of the week has in store! Hopefully see you there?

Two of the greats!! It’s an absolute pleasure working with these guys :)

I’ve been exhibiting Adam’s work for the past 10 years and Claud’s since the very beginning of Art Friend Gallery, so I couldn’t be happier to be exhibiting their work again and for them to get this spotlight!

These two gorgeous works have been chosen by the lovely team at Affordable Art Fair to be featured on their Curated Display walls at Hampstead, and we are pretty happy about it!
Of course, we’ll have plenty more brand-new pieces from both of them (and more!) at our stand, so please pop by and say hi!

Find us at Stand B9

The Beatriz González show at the Barbican is on my mind! What a journey. It lures you into a false sense of security with playful Vermeer remakes, and then suddenly you’re meandering through these brutalist halls and things get dark and political. It really is worth a visit. This insta post ended super long so I turned it into a blog incase you’re interested theres a link in our bio.

The handstand is part of my handstand a day (day 105) maybe not the most appropriate for that part of the exhibition, but had to be done and no one told me off ;)

Go see!
