“We would like to exhibit EVERYONE’s work …. All artworks will be exhibited in the form of prints so that everyone has the opportunity to exhibit their work! We’re donating all the profits to Create Charity, a charity whose focus is on creative and mental health – something which is super important to us.” – Zoe & Eleanor, curators at New Grooves.

Update: So happy to read the exhibition review by ‘Round Lemon’. Here’s a quote from it;

“Among the many forms of art presented like jewelry, sculpture and sea glass is a much needed emphasis on the art of embroidery, a form of art that is underrepresented and underrated in the world as we know it through spectacular artists like Tracy Davidson, Claire Graves and Catherine Hill.”

“Have you channelled your energy into something new and creative in the pandemic? We want to see it! ….. as part of an online collaborative project….. New Grooves Gallery is a collective with the aim of creating a visual community of people who have found a hidden talent amidst the pandemic. We want to celebrate expression in all its forms, especially by those who may not have previously considered themselves creative. We hope to encourage accessibility into the arts, with the goal of holding a physical exhibition whenever possible.” – New Grooves Gallery.
