SUMMARY:Rana Begum: No.1367 Mesh at Pallant House Gallery
DESCRIPTION:Acclaimed visual artist Rana Begum RA transforms our historic staircase with No.1367 Mesh\, her iconic suspended\, colourful mesh clusters\, creating a vibrant blend of history and contemporary art. \n\n\nThe monumental installation\, No.1367 Mesh\, crafted specifically for our historic staircase\, features Begum’s iconic colourful mesh clusters (often referred to as ‘clouds’). Each unique configuration brings vibrant colour and organic forms to the 18th-century townhouse\, blending history and contemporary art. The gridded material will spill over the landing balcony and through the middle of the staircase. It will allow visitors to experience the artwork from multiple angles. \nRana Begum’s work is known for blurring the boundaries between sculpture\, painting\, and architecture. It will bring a unique harmony of light\, texture\, and geometry to the Gallery. Begum draws inspiration from urban landscapes and traditional Islamic art\, using light as a fundamental medium to create immersive visual experiences. \nJoin us from 20 July to experience the magic of Rana Begum’s latest creation. In 2025 Rana Begum will be curating an exhibition drawn from the Pallant House Gallery collection to complement her installation.

SUMMARY:Chichester950 | Religion\, Rebellion & Reformation
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition sharing the story of the Christian faith in Sussex\, revealed through people\, events and objects\, from 1075 to the present day. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo mark our 950th anniversary\, we are delighted to present Religion\, Rebellion & Reformation\, an exhibition sharing the story of the Christian faith in Sussex\, revealed through people\, events and treasures\, from 1075 to the present day.\nThe exhibition\, which runs from 14th February – 15th November 2025\, features fascinating artefacts from across the Diocese of Chichester\, spanning East and West Sussex. Each object reveals remarkable moments and people from history. \nHighlights include:\n\nBejewelled rings and intricately decorated staffs and croziers owned and worn by the influential bishops of the Middle Ages.\nComparing a delicate bronze Medieval crucifix\, unearthed in a churchyard in Coombes\, with a simple wooden cross fashioned from duck board by a WWI soldier in the trenches.\nA pocket-sized Bible donated by the Sussex Regiment\, containing a pressed flower from Macedonia\, where its owner served on the front line.\nThe inspiring story of a group of wealthy and well-connected women who defied societal norms to help establish the first Anglican sisterhood\, The Society of St Margaret\, in 1854. Read their journals to explore how their tireless work brought lifesaving care to the sick and destitute in East Grinstead and beyond.\nMeeting Reginald Peacock\, a Bishop of Chichester and the first theologian to write in English—a bold act that ultimately led to his condemnation as a heretic.\n\nThese and many other fascinating artefacts will allow visitors to discover nine centuries of hidden histories and to reflect on the enduring role of faith during times of hardship and change. \nReligion\, Rebellion & Reformation has been curated by the Cathedral’s Canon Treasurer\, the Reverend Canon Vanessa Baron\, Visitor Experience Manager Rebecca Lewry-Gray\, and designed by Chichester-based design team StudioMoo.
