This is the time to take in as much of the arts and culture offerings out there. No excuses, schools closed and holidays have begun.

Flowers at the Saatchi Gallery is a must-see exhibition and definitely no prep required.

Immersive, inclusive, a feast for your eyes and genuinely something for everyone. Two floors, 9 gallery spaces with installations, art, photography, fashion and much more. A real feast for your eyes.

 ‘This exhibition is the result of support and effort of many people and organisations’ with the lists of roles and names included on a display panel the Saatchi Gallery highlighted the talent and skills it takes to create something so beautiful.  

Don’t forget also to visit the ‘Learning Gallery’

Memories and our clothes

‘First one’s the best’, Celia Pym

This display is so much more than you think. ‘First one’s the best’ by Celia Pym 2015 at the Tranquillity Exhibition at the Wellcome Collection.

Celia Pym is interested in memories held in our clothing and the therapeutic practical care of mending. 

I am sure there are many stories to be told.

Blog 75: An art piece and opportunity for positive distraction

Jeff Lowe at the Pangolin London Gallery.

The big question, what draws you in and what is it about an art piece which makes you stop, think and enjoy?

This piece distracted me from all the other busy Easter weekend jobs that need to be done. It made me smile as my eyes followed the tubes looking for the start and end.

Unfortunately I did not make a note of the name of this piece but recommend a visit to see the work of Jeff Lowe.
