What does your nomadic model mean?
Being nomadic means we don't have one fixed gallery space. Instead, we represent our artists digitally (on our website), as well as during pop-up exhibitions in different locations (usually other gallery spaces that we rent). Our past exhibitions have often taken place in London, since many of our artists are based there. 

Can I see the artworks in real life?
As part of our nomadic gallery model, we exhibit both online and physically. Generally our exhibitions are split into an online exhibition, followed by a physical pop-up exhibition with the same artists. These are held in cities across Europe, depending on the location of the artists. Additionally, If the situation permits, we would be delighted to organise a private studio visit for you and your favourite artist from our line up.
 
Are all artworks original?
All our works are original handmade paintings by artists from renowned art schools. They are unique, one of a kind, and completely original, and signed by the artist. 

Who are the artists?
Our artists are highly skilled and talented (near-)graduates from internationally renowned art schools, such as the Royal College of Art in London. You can find each artist's CV on their profile page. We often scout emerging artists; promising young talents who are just starting their careers in the art world. These are artists who we expect will grow quickly, meaning the value of their work is likely to increase.
