The Upcoming: Rebirth

Media partner: FAD Magazine

• A showcase of some of the UK's most exciting upcoming contemporary artists juxtaposed with more established artists to provoke a visual dialogue with the theme of Rebirth or Renaissance.
• Rebirth: The process of being reincarnated or born again. 'the endless cycle of birth, death and rebirth.'

• After 2 years of the pandemic, during which time we were confined to our homes in lockdown, prompting a reevaluation of the things that really matter, and a rediscovery and renewed appreciation of the healing power of nature during our daily walks or time spent in the garden, the theme of Rebirth seems like an appropriate one for this exhibition. 
• The artworks in this exhibition are a reflection of either a creative rebirth; a renaissance in creative output born from a period of hibernation and introspection; a spiritual rebirth; a rebirth of gender or sexuality; rebirth following an illness; a rebirth of studying, reading and learning; a period of new life, growth or activity; a cognitive or pyschological rebirth; or a reinforced appreciation of natural beauty and the life cycle of fauna and flora.
