Tatiana Cheneviere founded Pipeline in Fitzrovia in 2022 as a space for deeper engagement — not just with the artwork on view, but with the ideas that drive it. Each artist is introduced through a single work before their exhibition opens, offering a slower rhythm and an emphasis on storytelling. Ahead of presenting at MEGA, Tatiana reflects on the value of collaboration, the influence of non-profit spaces, and why she finds her greatest inspiration in the artists themselves.

    About Amici Studio

    Amici Studio is a multi-use creative space based in Hastings, East Sussex. Opening in January 2026 at 12 Claremont, next to Hastings Library, the Studio delivers a public programme of exhibitions, events and learning activity for artists, creative practitioners and local communities across Hastings, St Leonards and the wider East Sussex coast.

    Exhibitions

    The programme is structured around six two-month blocks across the year, each anchored by a core exhibition. These exhibitions form the backbone of Amici Studio’s activity and are accompanied by a wider layer of public-facing events, discussions and artist-led activity.

    Events and Public Programme

    Alongside exhibitions, Amici Studio hosts talks, performances, Salon Dinners and a monthly talks programme launching in spring 2026. These events create opportunities for conversation, exchange and shared experience around contemporary practice.

    Artist Development

    Amici Studio supports artist development through mentoring, portfolio conversations and practical workshops. These activities are designed to reduce barriers to participation, particularly for young people, early-career practitioners, disabled people and carers, and those facing financial or social obstacles to accessing arts and culture.

    In Progress

    When needed, the studio will host short-term artist In Progress occupations, offering space for live making, experimentation and exchange. These projects are process-led and provide opportunities for artists and audiences to engage with work in development.

    Community and Collaboration

    Amici Studio works closely with local partners and organisations, including Project Art Works, who are based in the same building. Collaboration and shared activity are central to the Studio’s approach, supporting connections across practices and communities.
