Pangaea is working to create a much-needed centre for sculptural practice in London, housing four stories of fully equipped, accessible and sustainable workshops, studios and education spaces for local, national and international artists, designers, makers and members of the public. Over the last ten years Pangaea has been building towards opening a sculpture centre in London. We have now found our property and this is currently being developed, with the aim of opening in 2026.
Our new home for sculpture in London is proposed to be in the new cultural quarter of Wickside, in Hackney Wick, East London. Wickside is a seven-acre canal-side development of around 500 homes, leisure facilities and a cultural hub including Pangaea Sculptors’ centre and a block of affordable artists’ studios managed by V22. The site is being developed by O’Shea’s and is scheduled to be ready, core and shell, in Spring2026, for the significant fit-out work to follow.
Pangaea is currently deep in business development planning for how to realise this vision, thanks to receiving the Innovate UK Creative Catalyst Award. In the current climate a venture such as this is not without its challenges and it will take a community of interest, support, investment and partnerships to bring this much-needed provision to London and make this exciting space happen.
Over 2025 we’ll be reaching out to the industry, to artists, galleries, technicians, fabricators, commissioners and others, to find out what services you are looking for and how we can best support each other and collaborate. We hope you are as excited by the potential of London having a space like this as we are, and join us on the journey.
