Feast on this curation of delectable art.
A feast for your Sunday morning. A focus of our current exhibition ‘Still, Alive’, food in art is often about far more than mere sustenance. Rooted in the traditions of still life painting, depictions of food are layered with meaning and personal narrative, serving as both snapshots of everyday life and carefully considered visual symbols.

The key to any successful dinner party is thoughtful preparation - the curation of a menu sure to delight even the fussiest of guests. From freshly picked, to picked clean, there are few sights more satisfying than a table scattered with the remnants of a meal well enjoyed.

Empty jugs and half-finished wine glasses speak quietly of Bacchanalian pleasures, hinting at lively conversation, shared company, and celebrations that linger long into the evening.
