8 holland st - Charlie Sheppard

It was such a pleasure to photograph Charlie Sheppard’s beautiful work at the 8 Holland Street Townhouse in Bath especially his striking mosaic coffee tables, crafted with handmade glazed ceramic tiles.

These pieces are part of the exhibition - CHARLIE SHEPPARD: SOUTH FACING, a stunning showcase of new mosaic works spanning from furniture to large-scale murals.

The exhibition takes its name from the heliotropic movement of plants, which follow the sun’s path through the day. Charlie’s floral mosaics capture this beautifully with their vibrant characters stretch to the edges of frames, shimmer with rhythmic patterns of shards, and send long stems arching gracefully across canvases.

Through his choice of colour, botanical inspiration, and the playful personalities woven into each piece, the show becomes a joyful celebration of the Bath garden Charlie grew up in.
