Brighton Art & Design Guide - Ink_d

Brighton Art and Design Map


Gallery Director Jenny Ogilvie and Studio Director Dan Hipkin opened Ink_d in April 2007, in what was a disused Tattoo Studio - hence the inspiration for the name Ink_d (an American term for getting a tattoo and because they have a print studio downstairs) This small gallery is next door to Bill's cafe in the North Laine - down the hill from 'infinity foods'.

Jenny and Dan both worked for the print store artrepublic for a while before wanting to specialise in more original work and produce limited editions for the artists they worked with.

Req 1 - Girl

The gallery has become best known for urban and street art "although we are much more open minded than that! We just have to love what we show in the gallery. We also support a lot of local artists"

Obscure - Estate of the Living Dead

Jenny and Dan "wanted to create a relaxed space to show great contemporary art. The inside of the gallery is not the usual stark white walls. We even hang work in the kitchen and toilet areas!"
