With such unique experiences, there is truly something for every art lover to discover at Labyrinth Gallery—a place where you can easily get lost in the vibrant world of pop art.
Can you tell me about Pepita coffee and the event tonight? We are a coffee company in partnership with Fatboy Slim who sells coffee all over the globe. We partner with street and contemporary artists to design the coffee tins which are collectible and reusable with the best coffee in the world from Colombia, Guatemala and Ethiopia. The coffee is a luxury blend, 100% Arabica. The fact that the tins are reusable is good for the environment. We won three UK awards this year. One for the Most Creative Luxury Coffee Brand at Luxlife Awards, one for Most Pioneering Gourmet Coffee Business at the SME News’ seventh annual UK Enterprise Awards and finally UK Enterprise Sustainable Coffee and Art Culture Excellence Award 2024 also at the SME News. We are happy to support and work with some incredible artists.
Where else are you currently working on this project? We are working in Miami and Germany. You can also find our product in London in Selfridges and Fenwick Department Store.
Do you have any connections here in Brighton? My son was born in Brighton and plays for Brighton football team (youth team) he also won the Brighton Marathon for kids last year. My son and daughter both live nearby in Lewes and we love Brighton.
Any exciting projects coming up for you? We are launching a new collection with Jessica Albarn (Damon from Blur’s sister) who is an artist. We launch new artists every month for the brand.
