Thursdays & Friday 10am -7pm.
(Final Tuesday 10am - 1pm)
Drinks Thursday 30th April, 5 - 8pm. All WelcomeEphemera : minor transient documents of everyday life. Halcyon colours that connect us to childhoods; 70s’ fonts and Victorian handwritten script - papers smoothed and stroked and aged by touching : physical, analogue and intimate.
Using vintage papers, old linen books and traditional oil paints, Tricia blends gestural markmaking and layered surfaces to create contemporary abstract pieces with richly visually tactile surfaces that sit within the British Modernist aesthetic.
The pieces explore memory, transformation and the quiet beauty of imperfection and noticing the often overlooked.

ANDREW BOYD
13 - 19 May 2026
Open daily 10am - 5pm
(Final Tuesday 10am - 1pm)
I am a native Cheltonian who has been painting in oil for many years but has never offered works for sale until now.Recently I have moved from old master copies such as Dutch still lifes to my own compositions which combine renaissance, pre-raphaelite and art deco influences. Although I mainly enjoy figurative subjects I also enjoy more contemporary genres such as steampunk, although still working in the academic manner.
I work exclusively in oil, using a traditional layering technique to build up detailed paintings on panel or linen. I am always looking for a harmonious whole using toned and muted colours to somehow relive the beauty of past artistic genres. Although I don't use any artificial ageing techniques per se, my ultimate objective would be for my work to look timeless, as though it has already been hanging for tens or hundreds of years.

THE SHAPE OF WATER, THE MEMORY OF LAND
Luba Arnold, Antonella Scarpa- Isles and Ewen Hyde
20 - 26 May 2026
Open daily 10am - 5pm
(Final Tuesday 10am - 1pm)Luba Arnold
Luba is a contemporary landscape artist based in Gloucestershire, UK. Her work explores the essence of memory, capturing light, atmosphere, and emotion rather than specific places. Inspired by countryside walks and the Cornish coast, she creates textured paintings using acrylic, oil, and charcoal. Built through layered, intuitive mark-making, her pieces feel both spontaneous and intentional, inviting personal interpretation.
Antonella Scarpa- Isles
Water fascinates me; its constant movement, shifting between revealing and concealing, beauty and danger. In my paintings, I explore its light, depth, and unpredictability through layered colour and texture. Drawn to it yet wary of its depths, I capture water as both a physical force and an emotional space, inviting a shared sense of wonder and unease.
Ewen Hyde
My work evolves through experimentation, using mainly salvaged materials and found objects, often scrap metal. The materials themselves inspire each piece, which I handcraft to ensure every sculpture is unique. Though sometimes playful in appearance, the work often carries a deeper, more serious message.
Whether you are an emerging or established artist looking to exhibit your work, or a designer or craftsperson looking to launch new products or ideas to public, we want to help.
The 430 sq ft sensitively restored space offers a fantastic ground floor frontage with a direct entrance onto a pretty street in the centre of attractive Montpellier; well known for its bars, restaurants, specialist shops and galleries.
Housed in an immaculately presented grade II listed building , built over 170 years ago, the space is bright, intimate and full of character.
If you would like to join our stable of artists and designers, all you have to register your work in order for it to be reviewed by our team. The reason for doing this is while we are keen to maintain an eclectic mix of styles, we also want to make sure it is the right fit for the space.
The minimum hire period is one week starting at £400, but you may also book for longer periods when available, and we ask for no commission on any of your sales.
As well as hiring out the space to artists and creative businesses, we will also arrange a programme of selected group and solo shows where we will invite people to submit their work for inclusion.
