Exhibitions & New Media Arts

Watermans commissions leading artists from around the world to explore art and technologies and what this means in the 21st century. The art works can be anything from film and video, AI powered soundscapes, computer driven visuals and experimental software offering immersive experiences. Watermans is currently participating in a major EU funded project, Artcast4D - the final exhibition in the original building, The Pillars of Our Latex House by Tendayi Vine was the first pilot project. The original venue specialised in presenting new media art exhibitions. It developed a close relationship with the WRO Art Centre in Poland. The two organisations jointly presented new media art events such as, Digital Redux. Watermans also has an online gallery space.

Recent exhibitions saw Watermans present work by artists from India, Poland and Slovenia, as well as the UK, The exhibitions have explored subjects such as computer dating, climate change and time.

Watermans has a significant track record in presenting work by emerging artists, often exploring diverse and difficult subjects. This offers a rare opportunity to explore the margins of contemporary art.

Watermans also participated in and continues to support the annual Brentford art trail event. Creative Mile. This annual event is an opportunity to explore Brentford through the work of local artists, involving everything from exhibitions, performances, workshops, and open studios. The event also showcases art work for sale. Actively managed and programmed by artists themselves, Creative Mile is an innovative and highly creative festival of contemporary art that highlights the positive regeneration of Brentford and its locale.
