About the Spring Open House
Not only one of our much loved resident artists but also our studio manager, Bruce is an integral part of the team here on Bermondsey Street. Better known for his stunning series Birds, he will present his largest collection of them yet in the gallery. Bruce will also launch new work during the Spring Open House: Weavers, a series that retains his purity and simplicity of form, interpreting it anew.
