New Central Desert Aboriginal Art has arrived in Tetbury!

The depth and breadth of style, colour application and pure artistic skill is always breathtaking. This time we obtained paintings by artists we haven’t represented before but whose early stage career entry show real promise. The one we are most excited about is Jacinta Pula Morrison whose work with dots expresses the shades of the sun as it moves across the Country during the day. It is truly exciting and modern.

Home interiors inspiration

Cotswolds clients bought “his” and “her” paintings for their new extension bringing warm hues to the grey wall creating a warm, cosy space for the winter months.

Since we’ve reopened Bay Gallery Home has been blessed with many visitors who are looking to buy from our Art and ‘My Country’ interiors collection. Simply put many of them were bored of looking at blank walls and wanted something to stimulate them visually while spending extended periods at home. Our Aboriginal art & interiors are steeped in sacred stories and 60, 000 years of history. Clients comment it gives them a sense of peace, grounding them in an ancient world where people lived with their Country rather than dominating it. While some (or most) of us are feeling lost and bewildered separated from family and friends we can immerse ourselves in this incredible culture and seek solace in its beauty and spirituality.

Our gallery’s products suite maximalist room schemes as well as catering to those who like the simplicity of minimalism. You can opt for a carnival of pattern and colour or stump for simple lines using traditional colours depicting desert forms. Over the next few weeks we will be sharing mood board ideas. We also have some exciting new fabrics to share with you and are busy making for a House & Garden shoot.

When buying from Bay Gallery Home you are supporting the Central Desert Aboriginal communities we represent as well as British designers and manufacturers.

Cotswold Life magazine featured Bay Gallery Home in 'Bringing the Buzz back to Tetbury'

Thank you to Tracy Spiers and Cotswold Life magazine for selecting Bay Gallery Home to appear in your Cotswold Life feature ‘Bringing the Buzz back to Tetbury. We have had quite a few visitors who read the article seeking us out afterwards.

Read the full article here:

Here is an excerpt from the article about Bay Gallery Home:

Alexandra opened what is the UK’s only dedicated Aboriginal gallery five years ago and in collaboration with British manufacturers, has created a vibrant international award-winning interior design range called ‘My Country’, using original Aboriginal painting designs.

“It is the only Australian Aboriginal interior collection in the world and it has now made The List - House and Garden bringing Aboriginal interiors to world class interior designers. People are drawn to the colours and patterns and when I explain each piece’s creation myth, it takes them to another place.”

Each painting is multi-layered in terms of its meaning, structure, symbolic and spiritual significance. Within the canvas lies secret business that only the artist and their families are privy to. But what the eye sees is a feast of colour, celebrating and representing a culture and way of life in a land few of us get to see. The relationship and trust Alexandra has built with the people she represents, has enabled her to showcase something rare and special.

“This building is medieval, but what is fascinating is that where we are dates back to Neolithic where people 10,000 years ago would have been painting at Market Place, Tetbury with ochres at the same time as the Aboriginals.

“I think that the town was already impacted by Brexit and I think people need to understand that. As people return, I hope they realise just how many independent businesses we have, each selling so many beautiful things. I do hope the sense of fear lifts and people will come into our shops again,” she says.

More paintings have arrived!

On our website you can see new paintings by some of our many talented artists. They arrived yesterday and we sold one this morning so if you have your heart set on any of the paintings please don’t delay in ordering it.

The pandemic has forced people to reassess their lives in many ways. In the gallery we are finding people wanting to cover their walls in meaningful, exuberant art after staring at them for so long during lock downs across the world. As such we’ve selected artworks which keep you captivated letting your eyes wander aimlessly across the canvas. The new selection is a mixture of bold blues, oranges, greens and reds for those that need an uplift during Zoom calls or afternoons with the children. We’ve also catered for people who need a calming influence after a stressful day with pastel blue, pinks, browns and yellows.

The Aboriginal people have suffered so much but remain incredibly resilient. It serves as an inspiration to us every day to do the best under the circumstances - we’re hoping that the artwork will serve as uplifting inspiration to you too.
