Our Story
This Era Art was founded in Oxford in 2020 by Deshna Shah, a Fine Art student at the Ruskin School of Art. Deshna noticed the lack of exposure for many emerging contemporary artist especially those who are from ethnic minorities. TEA provides a platform for artists to showcase their art and also have the opportunity to sell it.
Less than 33% of fine art graduates receive gallery representation or paid exhibition opportunities in the first five years after university. This Era Art presents work from a collective of artists who have attended the UK's leading art schools, such as the Ruskin School of Art, University of Oxford and The Royal Drawing School.
Our artists have been featured in leading UK galleries including The Tate Modern, Manchester Art Gallery and Ashmolean Museum.
