Welcome to

RAINMAKER GALLERY

The UK Specialist in Contemporary Native American Indian Art and Jewellery

Homelands, acrylic on canvas by Rick Grimster, Mvskoke.
HOMELANDS

26 September – 31 December 2025

HOMELANDS celebrates the eightieth year in the life of Mvskoke artist Rick Grimster. Born to an English mother and a Native American father, war baby Rick was raised by adoptive parents in the UK.

In this series of acrylic paintings, Grimster playfully merges abstract impressions of England and America through masterful use of colour, pattern and texture. Together these autobiographical landscapes chart his remarkable passage through time on two continents and his lifelong journey of transformation from adoptee to Indigenous elder.

HOMELANDS is a love letter to the people and places that gave life to this extraordinary artist.

This exhibition coincides with National Adoption Week.

Exhibition opening Friday 26th September 5pm-7pm
