‘Notes in Confetti’ is a pop-up exhibition raising funds for gender-affirming care, bringing together fifteen q***r-identifying artists working across painting, drawing, photography and sculpture, curated by Kate Burling.

The exhibition focuses on small-scale works that draw on personal and historical q***r signifiers. These fragments tell stories of individual and collective experiences, ripped up and scattered like confetti across the room. 

From the artwork sales, 50% will go directly towards the fundraiser, while the rest remains with the artist. This structure ensures that the cost of fundraising does not fall on the artists involved, while also creating an opportunity for support from beyond the q***r community.

The proceeds will fund gender-affirming top surgery and a gender referral consultation. The recipient has chosen to remain anonymous. To ensure transparency, all donors, artists and collectors will receive documentation showing how the proceeds have been used.

NEXT TUESDAY: Amelia Abraham in conversation with Zach Toppin | Book at the link in bio

Join us at the gallery on Tuesday evening (28 July, 7pm) for Amelia Abraham in conversation with reflecting on his practice and the first solo exhibition ‘Still Beginning’.

Amelia Abraham (Amelia Abraham) is a writer and editor from London. She writes about art, culture, and q***r history and present, for AnOther, The Guardian, Art Review, BUTT mag, Buffalo, and many other titles. Her books include S*x, Clubs, Dissent: Visualising Q***r Nightlife (2026), published with Mack books.

Working primarily in oil painting Zach Toppin () investigates transness, q***rness, masculinity, and identity formation. He largely creates allegorical portrait-narratives through still life painting. Interior settings act as a stage for objects to perform a narrative. The viewer is given access to intimate moments of a private trans life. Moments from memories in deep love or heartbreak, moments of desire, loneliness, longing or strength. He offers visual images as a script to be deciphered, the objects are players and the scene is the set. 

Please RSVP at the link in bio, or by emailing [email protected]. Please include any accessibility needs. Limited capacity!

Introducing whose solo show ‘Still Beginning’ opens on Thursday, 2nd July, 6-9pm!

Working primarily in oil painting Zach Toppin (b. 1987) investigates transness, q***rness, masculinity, and identity formation. He largely creates allegorical portrait-narratives through still life painting. Interior settings act as a stage for objects to perform a narrative. The viewer is given access to intimate moments of a private trans life. Moments from memories in deep love or heartbreak, moments of desire, loneliness, longing or strength. He offers visual images as a script to be deciphered, the objects are players and the scene is the set. 

The objects presented are symbolic vehicles, they contain other meanings, historical references, nods to important ancestors, messages of hope or foreboding, and through that, time travels outside of the picture plane. Fetishised items and personal relics are used as tools to explore gender fantasy, ritual, protection, and desire. These works operate as coded communications: intimate archives of trans life, dis-ease, euphoria, love, and becoming.
