Once your perspective is shifted, the possibilities are endless.

This is a very free flowing, laid back club and we welcome ideas and creative tangents.

Join us in welcoming our good friend @freeman_uk to the gallery wall. We’re absolutely ecstatic To be hosting his show, it’s not one you wanna miss…
Showing until Saturday 18th November
Freeman is a Brighton based artist that crosses the boundary between urban and contemporary art producing work that not only captures the essence of the object but brings it to prominence through his use of brash colour and fierce brush strokes. Not limited by the stillness of an object through his cubist approach he manages to insert an energy and vibrance into the mundane. Launching himself as a full time artist in 2013, and with a series of solo shows behind him, his work can now be found in private collections and is exhibited and represented by galleries across the UK, Germany and the U.S.
