The harmonious functioning of a beehive serves as a powerful metaphor for collective achievement. Hive marks our network’s fourth group exhibition, continuing a tradition where each iteration evolves through collaboration between our core members and the local gallery network.

This year, we’ve removed the constraints of specific materials and mediums. Our artists were invited to work without prescribed rules, resulting in an expansive collection that celebrates both individual independence and shared effort. We are delighted to present this diverse body of work, originally exhibited within the unique, interconnected "warren" of spaces at Gallery North, Hailsham, we now share with you an online exhibition to celebrate the work of the members that chose to take part.
