‘Bridging Fantasy Across Time' Opening Reception

‘Bridging Fantasy Across Time: In Conversation with Sidney Sime’

Co-curated by Jacob Heayes and in collaboration with The Sime Gallery.

Join us for the opening reception on Thursday 6th November 7-9pm.

Sidney Sime (1865–1941) is celebrated for his otherworldly illustrations, particularly his collaborations with fantasy writer Lord Dunsany. His fantastical landscapes, mythical creatures, and dreamlike imagery have inspired generations of artists, storytellers, and creators. Sime’s works not only evoke escapism and wonder but also connect deeply to the essence of storytelling that still informs modern fantasy worlds, particularly in video games.
