SERCHIA is a residential and not-for-profit woman run gallery residing in a Victorian home on a hillside in Cotham, Bristol. Founded in the summer of 2021, we celebrate contemporary artists, who make visible what would otherwise never be seen. The gallery hosts an artist-in-residence programme, ‘Artwork from Home’ welcoming artists to stay with us and to create artwork unique to the space. We interact with the community through a constellation of public and private events, artist talks, workshops, publications, and openings. We endeavour to support and raise awareness for artist-nominated charities, and cultivate opportunities for artists of all backgrounds.
Curated by Christine Marie Serchia, the gallery is named after her father Frank Serchia who famously built 'Serchia Drive', a driveway to their family's home in Youngstown, New York. Later, Frank built a boat dock on the Niagara River (Serchia Beach), and an outdoor dining area in the garden (Serchia Bistro).
Using the name Serchia is a reference to reimagining the idea of home and the way we understand what we see every day.
