Alma House

Domestic by Design. Cultural by Invitation.

Alma House is a lived environment where art, objects, and hospitality coexist. It operates privately — hosting exhibitions, salons, and gatherings by invitation only.

Where Art Lives, Privately

Here, art is not staged or separated. It is lived with — hung, discussed, questioned, and allowed to age alongside the people who encounter it.

The art of deception

Deception in art is not treated as failure, but as craft. These works explore imitation, authorship, and the thin line between homage and invention.

Gallery @500ft

Gallery @500ft sits above the Exmoor coast, representing contemporary and regional artists in an intimate setting. It is a gallery shaped by landscape — informal, thoughtful, and rooted in place.

Forgery on Trial

“Art meets judgement.”
Displayed in an Old Police Court, works occupied a space where truth and deception were once weighed by law. Forgeries hang as evidence — not of crime, but of craft. In the courtroom setting, every canvas is both suspect and testimony. Visitors become the jury, asked not “Is it real?” but...
“Why does it move us?”
