Art Exhibition: Arcana and Open Studios
Painting, sculpture, installation, performance
We are a community of artists based at Acme’s Billet Road Studios in Walthamstow, bringing together practices across painting, drawing, lens-based media, sculpture, installation, performance, jewellery, curating, printmaking, and interdisciplinary research-led work.
As part of this year’s Walthamstow Art Trail, we open our doors to the local community and invite visitors to explore Arcana, a group exhibition presented alongside Open Studios. Visitors are invited to encounter works in progress, meet the artists, and experience the diverse creative practices unfolding within Billet Road Studios.
Presented on the ground floor of the studios, Arcana unfolds the practices of 18 artists who, through diverse media, emphasise the agency of materials and the processes that shape them. The exhibition foregrounds acts of alteration as generative tools and invites viewers to reflect on the mysteries embedded within transformation, manipulation, decay, and reconfiguration.
Curated by Rosabla Riscatto
Join us for the opening on Friday, 12 June 2026, 6–8 pm.
At Billet Road Studio, Groundfloor
