After celebrating ten years dedicated to supporting artists, Sid Motion Gallery has taken the conscientious decision to close.
The final exhibition, ‘That Which Appears’, will be the 85th show staged by the gallery, and will run from 18th September – 31st October 2026. A second iteration of the gallery’s final exhibition, co-curated by Sid Motion, Olivia Bax and James Fisher, will be exhibited at The Millennium Gallery, Sheffield Museums, in April 2028 with an accompanying publication.
The South Bermondsey Art Trail is a two-day event of open studios, exhibitions and creative events to celebrate the diverse range of artists and creatives working in the local area of South Bermondsey, SE15.
Free and open to all, we warmly welcome the local community to get involved. To participate, email: info@sidmotiongallery.co.uk by Friday 7th August.
The gallery is delighted to announce that the Government Art Collection has acquired 3 large works by James Lomax from his recent exhibition; Hoarding, 2024, Shutter, 2024 and Store front, 2024.
Cast in concrete, these low relief works depict unopened envelopes scattered across anonymous surfaces. Drawing upon a photographic archive of images of vacant retail spaces in the artist’s hometown of London, Lomax made these works following a 2024 artist residency in partnership with Ikon Gallery at HMP Grendon, a Category B men’s prison in Buckinghamshire that specialises in therapeutic intervention and rehabilitation.
The Government Art Collection, established in 1899, is a national collection of historic, modern and contemporary British art that is displayed in government buildings in the UK and over 125 countries around the world.
