KATE ALGER | JIGSAW – GUILDFORD HIGH STREET

https://saos2023.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/Kate-Alger-Jigsaw-shopfront-square-600x600.jpg

Housed within a historic setting on Guildford’s High Street, Kate Alger’s artwork pays homage to local woodlands, waterways and often-overlooked urban plants. Her portraits of animals – both wild and domestic – are soulful and skilled. Her classic cars are rated amongst some of the UK’s finest automotive artists.

An award-winning contemporary local printmaker, Kate is proficient in a wide range of entirely handmade analogue techniques and disciplines. There will be etchings, monotypes, collagraphs, drypoints, blind embossings, silkscreen prints and more. Kate’s work is tasteful, often monochrome and ranges in size from small (10-20cm) to medium (30-60cm). Works will be available both unframed and professionally framed.

Visiting information
At the time of writing, it hasn't been decided if Kate's artwork will be displayed within the main part of the shop (flat access and open every day), in the upstairs part (accessed only by stairs and only open on the days when Kate is there), or a mixture of both. Please feel free to contact Kate in advance of a visit to see if she'll be there or not as she'd be delighted to talk you through all of the different printmaking techniques used and answer any questions or requests you may have. Please note that Jigsaw can't accept sales on Kate's behalf.

Place to eat
Guildford High Street and the neighbouring side streets are home to loads of different places to eat - from independents to chains, cheapish and cheerful to high-end, cafés to restaurants. Bon appétit!

Transport Details
Jigsaw is a short walk from Guildford's bus station at the Friary Shopping Centre, and a 5-10 minute walk from the main train station.
