We are so excited to announce Rachel Grove’s ‘A Portrait Exhibition’, opening December 7th as our first exhibition back after the lockdown!

Rachel’s self-portraits are full of textured emotion, balancing beauty and grit. She “aim'(s)for each portrait … to not replicate reality but to delve into the many facets of self, cutting to the core of one’s existence.” “(Alternating) between observation and imagination, which enables subconscious elements to surface.” Rachel often takes inspiration from her own life, creating a visual ‘diary’ exploring themes ranging from family to politics.

Joining Rachel on opening night are bands Baby Blue and MOLE. We couldn’t be more chuffed to have these wonders play!

MOLE will be kicking off the night , followed by the irresistible and dynamic melodies of Baby Blue. These must see bands will be winning over your ears and hearts guaranteed!
