About Us
PaintSpaces is a working atelier and gallery where art is created, curated, and experienced. We invite artists to shape these spaces, creating work that resonates thematically with nature, the cosmos and lived experience.
Through curated exhibitions and open studio experiences, PaintSpaces offers a welcoming, quiet and evolving environment where art is not just displayed, it is discovered and available to purchase through the gallery. We are artist-led and any support for our living artists is welcome.
Contact us to purchase from our website.
During exhibitions, we offer a convenient “buy-to-go” service
Matter of Threads 3
Opening Tuesday 10th November 5:30 - 7:30pm
Building upon the dialogue initiated during Matter of Threads 1 (April 2024 at PaintSpaces Gallery) and Matter of Threads 2 (April 2026), Matter of Threads 3 returns to examine shared thematic connections, exploring stories of culture, heritage, and personal experience through varied artistic mediums.
The exhibition brings together works by Aleksandra Niemczyk, Ema Mano Epps, Jyoti Bharwani and Sonja Kresojevic, exploring the expressive possibilities of threads through film, ceramics, woven forms and painting.
The exhibition is hosted at the gallery alongside an events programme featuring:
Film screenings, art & cake with the artists, co-creation installation work where visitors are welcome to participate or view and a sound healing bath. The exhibition will be curated by our special guest, Sarah Needham.
Artworks will be for sale through the gallery in person, or through the PaintSpaces Gallery shop.

Exhibitor's reflections
Our exhibitors' satisfaction is our top priority.
Here's what one of the exhibitors have to say about their experience exhibiting with us.
PaintSpaces gave me something rare, not just a place to exhibit, but a space to think. The openness of the environment allowed my work to evolve naturally, without constraints. It felt less like fitting into a gallery, and more like the gallery adapted to the work.
