Radiant is a gallery and events venue in the heart of Plymouth, by Effervescent. We are a laboratory for art + people, trying to make the world a happier place. The gallery is programmed by different groups of local young people, who have, through an intensive yet fun process, found what it is they want to express via the exhibitions. The exhibitions are selected by the group from a world-wide open call to artists, at any stage in their career. In this way, the young people are 9we hope) empowered, creating shows, rather than just being passive consumers.

This is the Studio with its own gallery space for artist Martin Bush. He is open to the public and has many of his latest painting on show for the public to see. Also open by appointment. Contemporary Expressive Abstracts are his main work and there are other additions of Jazz influenced paintings as well as greeting cards available of his latest works
