Coming soon... the Postal Exchange (15-26 October)

We are delighted to be collaborating for a second year running with Miriam Morris, with her creative exhibitions bringing artists together in new and exciting combinations. Across 2025, twenty-four artists have taken part in The Postal Exchange. Matched at random, each pair exchanged art materials via the post over several months. The goal of the project was to spark new creative practices, shake up existing working methods, and encourage playful collaboration. The resulting work—comprising collage, photography, and mixed media—will be showcased in The Postal Exchange exhibition at Leith Makers, from 15th October to 26th October 2025.

The Postal Exchange sought to foster creative fun, collaboration, and connecting the artistic community while challenging artists to step outside their usual practices and explore new forms of expression. Each of the twenty-four participating artists has selected one piece from their postal exchange series to display in the exhibition, offering a snapshot of the collaborative process. In addition to the main exhibition, visitors will be invited to contribute to a living collage wall—a massive blank canvas where the public can join in to create a collective piece of artwork in real-time. A commemorative zine will also accompany the exhibition, capturing the ethos and creative outcomes.
