Open: 11am - 5pm
Bath Artist's studios, as part of this year's ‘Fringe Arts Bath' are proud to present ‘Treasure'...
‘Treasure' represents the diverse and wide ranging work by artists based at the studio; covering many different disciplines including painting, sculpture, installation work, photography, film-making printmaking and more. ‘Treasure', like diamonds promises to be a multi-faceted gem of show; the work on show will reflect that treasure can mean many different things to different people, from treasured artefacts, to golden sunsets and everything in-between...
Treasure Trail
As the studios and gallery are a little bit out of the way, we're going to help you find us with a Treasure trail...
Follow the keys
To find the routes to Comfortable place, just follow the big yellow keys...they'll be big bunches of keys hanging in the trees, on lampposts, fences, any where we can find that won't infringe on legislation, and chalk keys marking the way on pavements and paths...they won't be hard to find, we promise.
The key start locations are from Green Park, through Sainsburys, and along the river walk and Charlotte St car park trail through the Royal Avenue toward Marlborough Lane
We'll lead you there
On the weekend 5/6 June, The Red Boot Band will be on hand to guide you from Royal Avenue to Marlborough land, just look out for the noisy band in red in or around the Pavilion Cafe.
When you get here
And when you arrive - along with the exhibition, on the weekend 5/6 June there will be a cafe as well, serving hot and cold drinks, along with lovely cakes and satisfying savouries.

Under Earth, Under Sea
1 - 8 Oct; 11am - 5pm
Private view 1 Oct; 6:30 - 9pm
Paintings, prints, drawings, photographs.
Musings on ephemeral nature and the fleetingness of time.
One of the main themes that interests
me is questioning our relationship with nature - is it possible, given how far from nature we are? I draw inspiration from diverse sources - animism, surrealism, psychology, fairytales and mythology.
I often begin by exploring natural objects and their imprints, playing with the mind's tendency to create imagery from seemingly random visual elements.
