Surface is delighted to present Silver Surface, our annual volunteer show, which this year commemorates the gallery’s 25th anniversary.

Silver Surface showcases a wide variety of artistic practices: embroidery, graffiti, interpretive dance, the comic book, insect taxidermy, poetry, and sculpture. There is a considered focus on the natural world with artists Toby Birks and Lucy Davies working exclusively with natural materials. Hanna Litvinova, Yang Jiang, and Caitlin Martin centre their works around the human form in acrylic, pencil and textile, respectively. Performance is prominent in this exhibition with Khaz Castle and DogWalz showing their work live during our opening night; Castle in the form of dance and DogWalz, who will be painting his piece throughout the duration of the show. 

Silver Surface will take place in the Main Gallery, in conjunction with 730 Daily Self-Portraits: A Solo Exhibition by Chaz Howkins in the Project Space. As always, there will be a donation bar with refreshments including ales from local brewery, Pheasantry.

Free Entry: Everyone Welcome
