‘Lost Art Of a Little Earthling’ is an exhibition characterised by vague and unfamiliar terms: earthy, primordial, dark and strange. Through elaborate tales of woe and wonder, we return to a lost and primitive world, where clods of dirt and pebbles are treasured, and residual dreams of youth float to surface. Our artists sketch a passing shadow, before it bobs off, into the dying sun, over the momentary horizon because, after all, did it ever happen?

Deadline for the open call is 25th March 2024. Free to Apply!
In ancient China, It is believed that places retain memories. The chapel in St Margaret’s House is a place of worship, hosting holy memories that are closest to heart. As an art exhibition taking place in the chapel, we would like to honour memories of the space while expanding on it.
