Inside the Playroom
Private View Saturday 7th June
This May 2025, Birmingham’s Stryx Gallery will hold their first ever commercial exhibitio aimed at children and their families. The gallery will be transformed into a colourful playroom where a selection of affordable, child-friendly illustrations, paintings, collages and soft sculptures will be for sale.
Redefining what a commercial gallery looks and feels like, this imaginative group show will feature more than 30 works by 11 local artists, who are represented by Stryx in Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter. Among the artworks will be depictions of animals, birds an circus scenes, as well as more abstract, decorative patterns and fun still life scenes featuring LEGO, dummies and family-friendly belongings.
The gallery will be curated like a child’s playroom, with many of the artworks framed and ready to hang in domestic spaces. This will give families an idea of what the artworks would look like back at home – in a nursery, bedroom or other shared spaces.
