Vibrant new art exhibition in Hertford
WHAT: SAINT VALENTINE’S DAY MASSACRE
WHEN: February 14th – March 1st 2026
WHERE: Brothership Studio, 14 Bull Plain, Hertford, SG14 1DT

At Brothership Studio, the art doesn’t sit still. We’re a living, breathing studio space, where creation unfolds in real time and visitors step inside an experience rather than simply viewing one. This spirit of experimentation sits at the heart of our mission to break down traditional art‑world barriers and champion a more open, immersive way to connect with creativity. It aligns perfectly with the pioneering energy of this upcoming show.
We’re thrilled to be collaborating with Pure Evil for a vibrant new exhibition that brings together iconic favourites and never‑before‑seen works, revealed exclusively on opening night. The show will sit alongside fresh pieces from our resident artists — Cherry Pie, Liz Loxton, Matt Collinson, Natasha Jowett, Nick Shipton, Oliver Combellack, Sue Black and Tim Voss — celebrating the full spectrum of talent that fuels our space.
Ever wondered what links the rave scene, graffiti culture, pop art and unfiltered emotion? Pure Evil provides the answer.
Using imagery and graphics recognised from popular culture, Pure Evil reveals the hidden depths and possibilities that lie beneath the surface of these icons. Often featuring his trademark teardrop, his work can turn beauty into a nightmare and the everyday into a social statement. His art mines a much deeper vein than what is visible on the surface, it prompts difficult emotional questions and elevates our sense of place within the world.
Just as Pure Evil’s icons begin to reveal their untold stories, we invite you to dig deep and ask: What is yours?
Come along to our Exclusive Opening Night.
13th February | 6pm–11pm.
We’d love to see you all there. Bring a friend and let’s celebrate the great art in our wonderful town of Hertford.
