HE will be making two rare appearances to chat to the public about his work at Open Days on Saturday May 11 and Saturday May 18.

Jamie’s schedule gives him little chance to exhibit in his home town, so this is a great opportunity to see the works and meet the artist.

Jamie is familiar to most for his notorious sculpture, The Great Wall of Vagina.  On show will be some smaller pieces derived from this work.

Also on show are Jamie’s figurative bronzes familiar to many from his Brighton Body Casting business.  Now located at a large purpose-built studio in the harbour in Hove, it previously became a local attraction when located in the sea front and subsequently in the Lanes.

Design Renaissance Gallery specialises in 20th century French design and 21st Century art.
They harbour an architectural, historic and artistic approach through their projects and realise interior design projects with the same approach.
