'Serendipity' explores themes around nature, the human experience and finding joy from the unexpected. Six talented artists combine different mediums and genres to present an eclectic display which, in the words of the artists,"covers all bases". Find everything from realist animal and still life paintings to vibrant abstract paintings and prints to mesmerising glass work and resin art.

Beautiful glassworks come from Alex Compton using real pressed plants in fused glass and layered with gold or silver leaf, resulting in pieces shimmering with movement and depth. Self taught textile artist Nicola Davis specialises in silk painting and batik, exploring the complexities of mental health and anorexia recovery through contrasts of darkness and vibrant colour and the inclusion of body-positive and self affirmation motifs. Inspired also by the beauty of nature, Nicola aims to spark conversations about mental health while creating uplifting and inspiring pieces that brighten any space. Ali Haynes studied Fine Art and illustration before embarking on a career in business. In January 2022 Ali and fellow exhibitor Joanne Spencer, opened the Corsham Gallery, attracting a vibrant community of artists and art enthusiasts. Since opening the Gallery, Ali has seen her own art career blossom, earning multiple awards and recognition along the way. In a continued series of drawings and paintings Samuel Lindup uses his art to romanticise about foreign worlds far away. How similar or bizarre would they be? Would there be evidence of civilisations familiar to humans, and what impact would they have had on their planets? Hollie Molloy has been painting in oils since finding her Dad's old oil paints in the attic at the age of 15. Hollie has developed her own realist style, working from a mixture of photographic references and real life, with a fair bit of imagination thrown in, to create delicate and whimsical animal paintings. The Gallery is also delighted to be showing Joanne Spencer's evocative lino prints inspired by the Uk's dramatic coastline and ever-changing landscapes. Joanne's distinctive style has earned several commendations, with one of her Avebury prints now part of the prestigious Wiltshire Museum Art Archive.
