Field System

Field System is a shop, gallery and print workshop located in the southwest of England at 13 West Street, Ashburton, on the southern edge of Dartmoor National Park.

The gallery has become a home for considered works of art being made in Devon and beyond by active and dedicated artists. We are committed to showing work that addresses folk, the esoteric and the natural and rural environment around us. We are delighted to present occasional events, talks, screenings and workshops to support our gallery programme.
