Archer Academy Gallery

Where we were longing to be during lockdown
For this project artists were asked to produce an artwork in any medium, inspired by the memory of a place they have visited or long to be.

Photogroup Showcase
Members of the EFOA Photogroup have put their favourite images on their Facebook page - you are invited to browse our images and select the images to be used for this exhibition by 'liking' them.
A favourite page from my Sketchbook
Most artists and craftspeople use sketch books as an integral part of their creative activity. Usually unseen, we asked our members to open their sketchbooks to view, to show that good art and craft does not just happen. It is part of a continuing process that goes on all the time.
The best and worst of times
Online exhibition
"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times"
Six ways with Colour
Burgh House, New End Square, Hampstead, London, NW3 1LT
Despite the pandemic, six artists were able to collaborate to create the exciting exhibition "Six Ways with Colour".
Climate Change is Real
Global warming is a daunting concept that can be hard to process, and it’s easy to be overwhelmed when confronted with a plethora of scientific statistics about temperatures and predicted sea level rises. This exhibition aims to explore ideas about climate change - its causes and effects. The artists are asked to address the issues of rising temperatures, pollution, natural disasters, rising sea levels and diminishing resources.
50:50 @ Highgate Gallery
11 South Grove London N6 6BS
EFO Artists have again risen to the challenge, five years on from the successful 'Cycles' exhibition, this time producing new artworks which relate to the intriguing theme of 50:50.
Almost Wabi Sabi Exhibition
Boulangerie Bon Matin, 178 Tollington Park, London, N4 3AJ
Wabi is said to be defined as “rustic simplicity” or “understated elegance” with a focus on a less-is-more mentality. Sabi is translated to “taking pleasure in the imperfect.” The Japanese philosophy encourages us to focus on the blessings hiding in our daily lives, and celebrating the way things are rather than how they should be.
