CIRCLE is a leading art gallery in North Cornwall, featuring two floors of exhibition space. The gallery, now in its 10th year, is run by Director Lucy Thorman and artist John O'Carroll. Located on the Atlantic Highway (A39) between Padstow and Wadebridge, Cornwall, the gallery showcases contemporary paintings, sculptures, textiles, original prints, and ceramics by local and internationally respected artists.

 

CIRCLE's distinct style is shaped by artists and makers whose creativity is inspired by their living landscapes, whether coastal or countryside. Director Lucy Thorman states "From a city dweller's perspective, landscape-inspired art practice is often dismissed as romantic and unquestioning. However, at CIRCLE, we believe art born from a true dialogue with nature is life-affirming, ever-present, and continually evolving."

 

With an exciting program of expertly curated exhibitions, CIRCLE Contemporary features a core group of resident artists as well as guest artists in both solo and group shows throughout the year. You can view current and upcoming exhibitions, as well as the full collection of artworks, online.
