Porthleven 100
19TH SEPTEMBER - 2ND NOVEMBER 2026
FREE ENTRY
Porthleven 74 (Storm Eye) by Ashley Hanson
This Autumn we are celebrating Ashley Hanson’s milestone 100th painting in his long-running series exploring the Cornish coastal town, Porthleven.
A small town with only a few thousand residents, abstract painter Ashley Hanson depicts Porthleven from all angles, representing everything from the clock tower to the local pub. His thickly textured paintings make great use of gesture and movement to capture the thrum of energy that is apparent in the town, his bold use of colour amplifying the impact. Known for its sweeping sunsets where the sun cuts right down through the centre of the harbour, his paintings often immerse you in deep warm tones reflecting this sumptuous view.
KMA Gallery is pleased to host a rich selection of paintings from this vivacious and enigmatic series, curated by Kellie Miller.
Artist of the Month
helen nottage
Perched within the Soul by Helen Nottage
This October and November, we excited to see Helen Nottage celebrated as our Artist of the Month with an outstanding new collection of sculptures.
For the new collection of pieces, Helen has been looking at the importance of nature within our lives and as a root to healing and growth. Her work also acts as a form of memento-mori, and this idea is incorporated into the figure as botanical prints and fossils collaged into the surface.
New Collection
barbara burns
Barnaderg (Red Gap) II by Barbara Burns
Beckoning in the rich tones of Autumn, Barbara Burn’s unctuous oil paintings embody the weight of the changing seasons.
Entitled Barnaderg (Red Gap), this latest series of work is inspired by the peatland and bogs of Western Ireland, wherein her thick, dark buttery layers evoke a sense of buried history and the words of poet Seamus Heaney.
