Now in its third year

A neighbourhood fair with an international guest list.

Highgate Art Fair began as a village exhibition and has grown, one year at a time, into one of North London’s most talked-about art weekends — without losing the thing that made it worth visiting: you can still talk to the person who made the work.

Painters, printmakers, photographers and makers work from studios across Highgate, London and further afield, showing together under one roof, each selected directly rather than through a gallery.

The venue does a lot of the work for us. The Victorian hall at Highgate Primary School has soaring windows and exposed timber trusses, filling the room with a warm, natural light that flatters every piece on the walls.

Sculpture & Craft

Alicia Felberbaum is a multidisciplinary artist and designer based in London, with an MFA from Goldsmiths, University of London (1994). Over several decades, her practice has evolved from an early focus on video art—exhibited internationally—into digital design, material experimentation, and contemporary jewellery. This cross-disciplinary approach continues to shape her work today. Her practice seeks to dissolve the boundaries between art and design, craft and code, exploring how contemporary tools can embody both the weight of personal history and the immediacy of gesture.

Rooted in a lifelong engagement with drawing, her current body of work investigates the convergence of analogue mark-making and digital processes. She creates limited-edition digital prints that probe visual rhythm, materiality, and the perceptual effects of colour. Inspired in part by David Hockney's early use of digital media in his 2011 Royal Academy exhibition, she treats technology not as a substitute for traditional methods but as an extension of the artist's hand.

Photography & FilmMixed Media & Collage

I see art-making as a process of creating new experiences while reconnecting with memories. I am an intuitive abstract artist who creates paintings that stimulate imagination and awaken creativity. I approach the white surface freely, without a predetermined idea, thought, or expectation. My inspiration emerges from memories, emotions, photographs, and visible subjects, which I translate into pure, colored abstract forms. The composition unfolds over time through the addition and removal of marks, combining intuitive impulses with active, deliberate gestures. I primarily work with acrylic on paper, canvas, and board, experimenting with diverse tools and textures such as recycled materials, sponges, textiles, ribbons, rags, leaves, and sticks. For me, painting is a way to detach from rules, limitations, and constraints. Within endless possibilities, the outcome gradually reveals itself through the process. Alongside my art practice, I offer mindful painting and coaching sessions, supporting others in reclaiming their creative spark, gaining clarity, and finding flow through their unique process.

Photography & FilmPrint

A collaborative stand from printmaker Gerard McDonagh (Bravespears) and urban landscape artist Hilary Masetti.

Gerard McDonagh is a multidisciplinary artist whose practice is centred on printmaking, alongside painting, collage and film. Working with images drawn from popular culture and narrative, he uses print to reshape and reframe familiar material.

Screen printing, intaglio and collage are central to the way he works. Images are built through layering, repetition and interruption, allowing details, references and shifts in meaning to emerge over time. Whether in prints, paintings or mixed-media pieces, the work is direct in its visual impact but open in how it can be read.

Printmaking is not only his primary medium but the basis of his wider approach. Its structure, discipline and physical processes carry through the rest of his practice, where painted and collaged elements are used with the same attention to surface, composition and change. The result is work that holds together as image while leaving space for ambiguity, tension and discovery.

Hilary Masetti is an Urban Landscape Artist, based in Muswell Hill, North London. Her work is inspired by her love for architecture and fine detail and the charm of North London buildings. All Hilary's pieces are drawn by hand in her Muswell Hill studio. In every drawing she captures the way light hits different surfaces, showing off their varying colours and textures and highlighting their unique characteristics.

Hilary chooses to use ink and pencil or brush-pen in all her work as these lend themselves beautifully to the buildings and scenes she draws, enabling her to capture the tiniest of details and producing a vibrant and sharp finish.

Hilary exhibits regularly at a number of North London venues. Her work is sold widely both in the UK and abroad.

Painting

Caroline Matthews ASGFA paints and draws treescapes and loves being in the woods and capturing the beauty of nature. Her work is more than just representations of trees; it is an expression of a moment in time; a pathway to light, and an exploration of the intricacies and textures found in nature. Caroline's work describes a peaceful, yet uplifting atmosphere that invites viewers to breathe deeply and feel the space around them, as a form of escapism, cocooned by nature.

Caroline is an award winning full-time practicing artist, an Associate Member of the Society of Graphic Fine Art and a member of the Studio Fridays group. She has a background in education and worked as a teacher for 32 years. She has exhibited at the Mall Galleries London with the Pastel Society 2024/25/26 and The Society of Graphic Fine Art 2024/25/26, the ING Discerning Eye 2024 and the Royal Society of British Artists 2025.

Photography & Film

Cody Choi is a contemporary photographer and choreographer known for his stunning figurative portraits of dancers. Born in Hong Kong and a dancer himself, Cody captures the dynamism and passion of his subjects with an expert eye. Cody's work is funded by the Arts Council England, as well as commissioned by the Royal Opera House, Greenwich Dance London and exhibited globally.

FROM DANCER TO PHOTOGRAPHER

Cody graduated in Modern Dance in 2000 from The Hong Kong Academy for Performing Arts, where he received the Jackie Chan Scholarship twice. Cody was then awarded a full scholarship to join the Transitions Dance Company at Laban in London. He has a breadth of international performing experience, including 3 international touring seasons with Matthew Bourne's Swan Lake as well as the English National Opera and the Royal National Theatre. This has no doubt provided the artist with the photographic reflexes and perception required to apprehend and seize the trajectory of his dancers as they glide through urban and suburban landscapes.

Mixed Media & Collage

Danic Lago is a Brazilian artist based in London, working with mixed media collage. Her practice is rooted in over 25 years of creative experience developed across Switzerland, Mexico, and the UK, shaped by an early career in fashion trend research and close collaborations with European and Brazilian designers.

Her work explores strength and emotion shaped by the intuition of the divine feminine. Using textiles, colour, and found objects, Danic creates layered compositions that function as visual poetry, handmade narratives that invite reflection, curiosity, and personal interpretation. Each piece unfolds slowly, revealing meaning through subtle symbolism.

Abstract

Gabriella Buckingham has worked in the creative industries for three decades. She is fascinated by colour, shape and conveying a sense of feeling. That might mean contemplating relationships through still life or letting freedom and the unseen inspire abstract work. Combining memory and imagination with objective reality means that there is always an innate freedom her work. Gabriella's art has been selected for the Jacksons' Art Prize, The Discerning Eye, The ING - Figurative Art Now and the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, featuring in the 2025 RA calendar.

Painting

Jenna Waldren's practice is deeply rooted in the act of looking. Through observing her immediate surroundings her work acts as an almost autobiography: documenting glimmers from her daily life. Using drawing, painting and printmaking in a careful and tender manner, her work experiments with the balance of the graphic versus the painterly, juxtaposing bold lines against delicate, detailed areas of focus.

Jenna graduated from the BA (Hons) Painting programme at the University of Edinburgh with a First-Class Honours in 2021. Since then, she has been awarded the BTA Rising Star Award, reached the semi-finals of Sky Arts Portrait Artist of the Year 2024, and was shortlisted for the Husketh Hubbard Bursary. She has also been longlisted for the Scottish Portrait Award 2023, Jackson's Art Prize 2026 and was the Winner of the London First Prize Arts Depot Open 2018. Recently, she has been selected for the RBA Rising Star exhibition which will be held at the Royal Over-Seas League (ROSL) in May 2026.

AbstractPainting

Kayleigh Young is an abstract artist working from her studio in Hertfordshire, England.

Young holds a Foundation Diploma in Art and Design as well as a Bachelor of Science from the University of Manchester. She worked in fashion marketing prior to reconnecting with her passion for hands-on creativity and a love of painting.

Her abstract works are often characterised by a bold use of colour and shape, layered washes and loose mark making. Moving fluidly and instinctively in a flow-like state, trusting her intuition to guide each gesture, Young's practice creates a pocket of stillness in an otherwise bustling life of motherhood. Each work embodies her playful approach to movement and intersection; created through relaxed lines and pigments diffusing in to one another, guiding the viewer's eye across the canvas.

K. Lee began creating his artwork in 2004. Since then, he has exhibited and sold his work from his studio and galleries worldwide. He found that, to him, art/creative work is a subject with many definitions. For that, he uses a lot of inspiration from nature and his early morning walks in London's parks. Keng Wai's subjects are figurative, with emphasis on bright colours and bold lines. By creating a story, he aims to give the viewer a lasting impression, inspire and evoke memories; then he has done his job.

AbstractPainting

My artistic practice is deeply rooted in sustainability and mindfulness. As an abstract painter, I create handmade watercolours from foraged earth minerals and work on off-cut linen to minimise my environmental impact. This process reflects my commitment to eco-conscious art, using nature as an inspiration and medium. Each painting tells a unique story drawn from urban and rural landscapes, sparking conversations about climate change, the cosmos, and the importance of being present. Slowing down and practising mindfulness is central to my creative process. Quiet, delicate art can offer a sense of calm, enhance well-being, and encourage deeper reflection. Through subtle, textured compositions, I invite viewers to pause, find stillness, and reconnect with nature and themselves. My work also serves as a call to action, challenging societal norms and prompting awareness of our environment. Informed by extensive research on science, the environment, and consciousness, I combine storytelling and abstraction to inspire collective action toward a more sustainable future. Through exploring our interaction with the natural world, my paintings encourage a more grounded, attentive, and eco-conscious way of life.

I'm a local artist specialising in screenprinting. I am inspired by local (often unsung) landmarks and the personal histories they evoke. I started with an artwork of Alexandra Palace nearly 20 years ago and then a pop-up exhibition in Highgate Village. I'm also co-owner of T&T a gift shop in Muswell Hill / Alexandra Palace where I exhibit my work and collaborate with my partner in retail on textile artwork projects. I design all my own artworks and screenprint each edition by hand in an open access studio. I am very interested in local buildings and have several artworks of the Highgate area such as Highpoint and the connected architecture of The Penguin Pool in London Zoo. I'd love to show a range of my work in the surrounds of it's inspiration again.

PrintPainting

Rebecca Denton is a full-time painter and printmaker from North London. She regularly exhibits, has work permanently in the Southbank Printmakers Gallery and prints archived in museum collections including London's V+A and collectors worldwide.

Rebecca creates etchings and monotypes including local scenes of Hampstead Heath and Highgate.

Her etchings capture moments and relations between people, celebrating friendships, memories and the simple joys of life. They have an ethereal quality and are uplifting and hopeful.

Inspired by her love for cold water swimming, recent work features London's lidos and half-hidden, intimate swim spots including the Hampstead ponds.

Rebecca refers to her drawings and visual memory and prefers to draw in the diffused light of early morning or when the light is low.. "Light is everything.. creating soft colour, gentle shadows, mood and drama."

Her monotypes, one-off ‘printed paintings' allow her to catch the ‘moment' by working quickly:

"It's a painterly process which forces me to work quickly before the ink dries resulting in a unique spontaneity and energy coming to life in each print."

Photography & FilmMixed Media & Collage

Covid put a halt to my career as a commercials director and to fill the creative vacuum I returned to the experimental work I had pursued as a photography student. Each day I would explore the high streets and backstreets of North London in search of textures. At home I would collage these images together into what I call ‘Graphic works of Dubious Splendor'. I would then print on metal. This became an obsession and seven books and four solo exhibitions later these creations have become a full-time occupation. The pursuit of this interest has taken me to New York, Istanbul, Muscat, Riyadh and Cairo. The latest photography project ‘Fifty-Two Stops' was a five month voyage of discovery along the the high streets of the Northern Line from High Barnet and Edgware to Morden. In March 2026 I started a three year artist in residency on a 32 storey construction site in Nine Elms.

PrintAbstract

I am an artist-printmaker based in London. I mostly produce screenprints, linocuts and giclee prints of my coloured drawings.

In my work I illustrate underlying issues and context in society while also seeking original ways to look at composition and colour. I am particularly interested in the environment, development and our urban and rural landscapes and how these things interact. I emphasise blocks of colour, strong geometric shapes, and contrasting patterns and textures. Most of my pictures are landscapes often with a focus on simplified composition. For my screenprints I take an iterative, reduction approach with layers built up with paper stencils and block-out paint.

My latest work has been exploring abstraction of rural landscape scenes in North Wales and the Pennines. I have recently completed a series of pictures exploring the industrial heritage and natural environment of Walthamstow Wetlands and the Lea Valley.

I am mostly self-taught but also learned on courses at open access print studios. I was active in Birmingham Print Workshop and on moving back to London I founded East London Printmakers.

I have exhibited in group and solo shows in locations including London, Birmingham, Bristol and Cardiff and venues and shows including: the London Art Biennale 2021; Royal West of England Academy Annual Open; London City Hall; Woolwich Print Fair; and the Princes Foundation. I won the Printmaking Today prize at the 2023 Festival of Print and the ArtGemini print prize 2024. I have been short-listed for the Jackson's Art Prize 2025.

I was selected to take part in Sky Arts Landscape Artist of the Year in 2021.

Mixed Media & CollageAbstract

I am an abstract artist born and raised across the vibrant cities of India, where constant movement exposed me to a rich tapestry of cultures, languages, and traditions. Growing up, art didn't seem like an option—studying it felt like a distant dream. Yet, life has a way of leading us where we're meant to be.

With a background in surface textiles, I developed a keen eye for texture and an intuitive understanding of color, which now shape my expressive, layered paintings.Having painted all my life I finally took the decision in 2020 to persue my art full time, I left behind the structured world of textile design, trained at the London College of Fashion, and embraced abstraction's untamed beauty.

Now, working from my Hertfordshire studio, I paint the in-between—silences that hum, chaos that heals. Inspired by the natural world and the fluidity of the sea, a force that shaped my childhood as the daughter of a naval officer, I translate movement, memory, and emotion onto the canvas. My process involves layering textures, colors, and spontaneous marks, resulting in deeply emotive works that echo personal and collective experiences. My work serves as a bridge between past and present, inviting viewers to linger, reflect, and find their own meanings in the abstract forms.

As a keen walker I have always been drawn towards rural landscapes, returning to my favourite mountains, coastal paths and forests. I paint plein air, experiencing the elements and responding to the changing light.

More recently I have enjoyed depicting urban landscapes, where I also celebrate pattern and colour and find inspiration in the juxtaposition of man-made and the natural world.

I am a practicing GP and while working throughout the pandemic I became increasingly aware of the importance of nature and urban green spaces for the wellbeing of those who live in cities.

In my work I hope to draw attention to these wilder greener places in London where I live. I have explored and painted in community gardens, parks, by canals, on roof tops and along the Thames and often put up my easel on Hampstead Heath and in the Highgate allotments where I am artist in residence.

I am keen to return to the same subject or place, at different times of year, creating a series of work reflecting the changing seasons or my mood. I have completed a series of paintings on Hampstead Heath, and at the Highgate allotments and last year I painted a monthly series of trees.

If the weather makes it impossible to paint outdoors, I return to other favourite themes, flowers, fruit and fish. I have always found the patterns and colours of mackerel especially captivating to paint.

I am also interested in community art and the power of creativity for mental health. I have led mosaic making projects at my GP practice in Islington, at the Whittington and Great Ormond Street Hospitals encompassing NHS staff well-being and team building. Vulnerable and isolated patients participated in the Health Centre Bench Project through Social Prescribing and we achieved engagement of the wider local community and urban improvement.

A true highlight of Highgate Art Fair, our Children’s Exhibition returns for its third year! Showcasing an extraordinary range of work created in the Art Studio by children aged 3–11 from Highgate Primary School, the exhibition celebrates imagination, experimentation and creativity across a variety of media. Taught and curated by the school’s specialist Art Teacher, Andrea Rodriguez Lagartos, this is a wonderful opportunity to discover the ideas, energy and talent of the artists at Highgate Primary.
