We are excited to announce our next call for artists submissions for our forthcoming exhibition ‘Hiraeth’ - The show opens on 24th March 2024.

Hiraeth is a Welsh word that has no direct English translation. However it’s likened to a homesickness tinged with grief and sadness over the lost or departed… A blend of homesickness, nostalgia and longing, "hiraeth" is a pull on the heart that conveys a distinct feeling of missing something.

We would love to receive an array of work which you as artists feel is embodied with a sense of loss and/or longing for something: be it a place, a loved one, a home, a belonging or pretty much anything that fits seamlessly with what Hiraeth means to you.
