EARTH MATTERS by candlelight 2
Earth Matters by Candlelight Final Night
Following the wonderful response to the first candlelit evening, Framed & Fermented will open once more for one final opportunity to experience Earth Matters in a quieter, more atmospheric setting before the exhibition closes.
The gallery will be illuminated by candlelight and immersed in Alice Eldridge’s live woodland soundscape, bringing the changing sounds of the Sussex landscape into the exhibition.
Painting, sculpture, photography, planting, furniture and sound come together throughout Earth Matters, exploring our relationship with landscape, natural materials, regeneration and the wider ecological world.
For this final evening, two further wine pairings originally selected for the exhibition by Henry Butler of Butlers Wine Cellar will be available to purchase by the glass for the first time.

WINE TASTING | EARTH MATTERS
Join Butlers Wine Cellar and Framed & Fermented for a special late afternoon wine tasting to celebrate the opening of Earth Matters.
Curated by Henry at Butlers, this tasting takes a slightly different approach: a selection shaped in response to sculpture, natural textures, planting, handmade furniture, and the atmosphere of the exhibition itself.
EARTH MATTERS
A multi-sensory exhibition bringing together artworks by Michael Rainsford and Will Nash with botanical curation by Hugo & Green and rug installation from Christopher Farr. Extended through a series of immersive events, wine pairings and artist-led conversations.
MAY OPEN HOUSES
ARUNDEL MEWS COMES ALIVE AGAIN THIS YEAR
Red Roaster will be open with coffee, tastings and refreshments, BIP-Art Printmakers bring hands-on workshops into the space, and Kate Jenkins returns with her brilliantly playful crocheted work.
We’re also debuting Sam Lock and Will Nash in the gallery this year.
More to see, more to experience, and a good reason to stay a little longer.
WINE TASTING & ART PAIRING
Join us for an intimate evening of art and wine at Framed & Fermented.
Founded by Brighton-based curator Thomas Rainsford, Framed & Fermented explores how artwork can be experienced beyond the traditional gallery setting. By bringing together original works, considered presentation and informal hospitality, the gallery invites people to slow down, look closely and enjoy conversation.
For this special event, six selected wines will be paired with six artworks. The evening will unfold as a shared journey through the space. Thomas will introduce each work, followed by Henry from Butlers Wine Cellar, who will share the thinking behind each pairing.
The atmosphere will be relaxed and sociable, with light nibbles provided.
Tickets are £30 and places are limited.

THE FIRST POUR
Framed & Fermented burst onto Brighton’s cultural scene with a packed soft launch: Rathfinny sparkling in hand, guests explored curated artworks to the soundtrack of Mark Bassey’s Jazz band. A bold debut that proved art and wine can share the same stage with style.
