Becoming British - Exhibition

How much do we change when we move to a new country? What do we embrace, resist, leave behind? Can we really, one day, become "truly" British? And what does that even mean?

Throughout March, Buzz Gallery will be showcasing the results and lead up material to the 6 hour durational performance of Becoming British

10am - 3pm, Monday - Friday, from 10th March to the 28th March 2025

Location: Buzz Gallery, ROAR Artspace, Westgate Chambers, Westgate, Rotherham, S60 1AN

RSMA Annual Exhibition
Sept
17
to 27 Sept

RSMA Annual Exhibition

ROAR Member Chris Slater will be exhibiting at the RSMA Annual Exhibition at Mall Galleries, London from 17th - 27th September.

“The Royal Society of Marine Artists is the focal point for much of Britain's finest contemporary marine art, and many of the country's leading marine artists are elected Members of the Society.

This country is an island nation with a proud maritime heritage. The coastline of Britain and its principal islands measures some 19,400 miles, presenting a wide variety of often spectacular scenery.

The sea is part of who we are as a nation. It is this heritage and this environment that we aim to celebrate.

Whilst much of our work is representational in the broadest sense, our styles, choice of subject matter and painting medium vary enormously. Some of our Members specialise in thoroughly researched historical subjects, others capture the thrill of modern yacht racing; some enjoy muddy creeks and quiet harbours, others find beauty in super-tankers and cargo vessels; some find inspiration on the deep sea, others explore what's under the sea.

But no matter what we paint, or in what style, no matter whether we paint en plein-air or in the studio, the sea is always our main source of inspiration.”
