A new art gallery has opened in the former Dockerills hardware store in Brighton, following months of careful renovation. The space, operated by KMA, is a purpose-built gallery that will display hundreds of unique artworks across painting, print, sculpture, and ceramics. Its inaugural exhibition, titled Liminal, features works by artists Rachel Williams, Ashley Hanson, and sculptor Klaus W. Rieck.
The opening marks a significant new chapter for both the gallery and the art community in Sussex and beyond. By transforming a historic local hardware store into a dedicated exhibition space, the gallery aims to become a beacon for celebrating original art, potentially boosting the regional art scene and providing a new venue for contemporary visual art in Brighton.
