Celebrated local painter and mixed media artist, Dom Holmes will exhibit at the Forge Art Fair 2024. 

Dom’s work is inspired by the plant life found in Newham, they told Newham Voices. “My Urban Nature series explores plant life found in my local East London community. My works examine the ways in which nature can inform and shape our connection with, and our place within, our local environment.”

The Art Fair event will take place on the first weekend of November, featuring a private showing on 1 November and open to the public free of charge on 2 and 3 November. London Lighthouse Gallery & Studio, London City Island, 18 Lyell Street (next English National Ballet building) E14 OSZ
