Current Exhibition

Portrait / Landscape

August 2026

Portrait / Landscape, the polarity being explored in this exhibition will be that between two of photography's most popular genres.

The difference between place and person can seem stark, the intimacy of a portrait and the grandeur of a landscape, but the same basic photographic principles apply to both, the capture of light and shade, exploration of shape and composition.

Exploring the differences and similarities between these two genres of photography can lead to interesting and thought provoking work.

Past Exhibitions

Light & Shadow

March 2026

For our gallery's inaugural exhibition, we took influence from our gallery's name and chose the theme, Light and Shadow.

Day / Night

April 2026

Day / Night is a core polarity of everyday life and the world around us.

Beyond a simple cycle of light and dark, the theme embraces contrasts such as visibility and obscurity, activity and rest, public and private, as well as moments of transition and overlap.

Summer / Winter

May 2026

Summer / Winter is an annual polarity that is experienced throughout the world to varying degrees.

The theme can be more than just a shift in temperature or season, it can explore the contrasts such as growth and dormancy, abundance and stillness, vibrancy and quiet.

It reflects changes in landscape and daily life, from long summer days to long winter nights, the contrast between the two can be stark.

Still / Motion, the polarity being explored in this exhibition will be that between stillness/ freezing a moment and movement caught and expressed through photography.

Capturing movement or the lack of, is a technique that has been used in photography from the start of photography. Slowing the world down to capture a fleeting moment, like Henri Cartier-Bresson photographing a bicycle speeding down a road, or freezing a man mid leap.

Still / Motion

Home / Away

July 2026

Home / Away, the polarity being explored in this exhibition will be that between familiarity and novelty/otherness.

Photography can capture the different feelings of the familiar, love, calm and comfort that we associate with the theme of home. This may be done by creating a feel of nostalgia with use of film photography, or by the use of certain colour palettes.

It can also be used to explore the newness, excitement, adventure, novelty and otherness we might feel when we are away from home or just outside our comfort zone.
