Ham House, New Perspectives: Past, Present and Place is an exhibition of work-in-progress from the creative researchers group The Storybox Collective in collaboration with Ham House and Garden.
Work on display in the Back Parlour, including sketchbooks of work in progress, will capture initial explorations of Ham House's rich and varied history, the hidden gems within its collection and its restored 17th-century gardens.
This first exhibition invites people to consider each artist's journey from inspiration to creation, and to examine the role of historic places and collections as sources of creativity.
A further exhibition displaying the final artworks will take place at Ham House in autumn 2025.
The Storybox Collective (SBC) is a group of artists, designers and writers working with historic collections and archives to explore the potential of creative research through collaborative making. Previous collaborative projects include: 'William Morris Wallpaper Man' with The William Morris Society and 'Finding Ways In' with the Sussex opera house Glyndebourne.
