Travel Information
- We are well served by the local bus network. Tell your bus driver you need to get to the top of Brunswick Square in Western Road, Hove, or the east end of Hove Lawns on the seafront road (Kingsway, A259). For full timetable and route information see: Brighton & Hove Buses.
- By car: driving to Brighton & Hove is relatively straightforward but it should be noted that traffic can get very congested at weekends and holiday periods. Once here drivers often find parking to be problematic. There are a few limited parking options in Brunswick Square and on the seafront.
- If you are visiting by train you can use Hove or Brighton stations, each being approximately 1.3 miles from The Regency Town House. For full timetable and route information see: National Rail UK

About
This multi-disciplinary exhibition shows the work of thirteen artists and designers, whose storytelling has led them to explore their individual subjects with an emotive response. Each artist has chosen the medium with which to best tell their story; some are incomplete with more to add, and some of the stories will never reach a conclusion . What the artists have in common is that their narratives draw upon private matters which are shared as public statements.
The collective of artists and designers, some recent University of Brighton MA graduates, others, current students, have allowed their individual journeys to lead them to unpredictable discoveries and the exhibition has many themes, but they are all connected by the urge to provoke conversation about emotive topics.
The process/act of exploring individual themes has led each artist to experiment with a range of media and contexts, each searching for a way to ask meaningful questions and hopefully, to answer them. In doing so, the artists hope to open dialogue on universal issues and bring this into the public realm.
