CIRCLE Contemporary, based in Cornwall and working worldwide, presents a considered collection of contemporary painting, textiles, sculpture, original prints and ceramics. The gallery's contemporary style is shaped by artists who live and work in country and coastal places — an exploration of nature and our connection to it.
Spanning two light-filled floors, CIRCLE's year-round programme of solo and group exhibitions is shaped by the vision of co-directors Lucy Thorman and John O’Carroll. Working in close dialogue with collectors and leading interior designers, Lucy curates works that find their place in private collections and public spaces worldwide.
John O’Carroll is an internationally recognised contemporary painter. His working studio occupies the gallery’s first floor, and he divides his time between the Cornish coast and a winter studio in Egypt’s Western Desert, drawing inspiration from landscapes shaped by elemental force.
Now in its 11th year, CIRCLE and its artists have been featured in ELLE Decoration, Homes & Gardens, and Wallpaper—affirming the gallery’s reputation for exceptional craftsmanship, innovation and elegance.
