Artist Simon Tolhurst is showing portraits of patients undergoing treatment for cancer or haematological conditions at University College London Hospitals (UCLH) NHS Foundation Trust.
The drawings were sketched between 2013 and 2023 during chemotherapy or other treatments and often include the patient’s loved ones in double or group portraits.
This exhibition is the first time that the portraits have been shown together publicly.
The Artist Who Draws Cancer Patients: an exhibition by Simon Tolhurst at the Coningsby Gallery, 30 Tottenham Street, Fitzrovia, London W1T 4RJ. From 4 to 16 August 2025. Open Monday to Saturday from 10am to 6pm. More information here.
