About Us

Our mission is to present affordable art and connect clients with artists whose work captivates, challenges and inspires.

The symbol of the trident reflects the gallery's three defining principles:

Curation: Every piece is selected with passion and scrutiny.

Connection: We believe art should be for everyone. We bridge creators and you, making contemporary art feel personal and approachable.

Collection: We help people become collectors, not just buyers. We offer guidance, insight and access to works that resonate with you. Collecting art should feel personal.

Chris Thomas is the Managing Director of Trident Fine Art. 

After 15 years of working in the finance sector, he felt his enthusiasm for the industry beginning to wane.

Wanting to continue working in investment, but not the kind measured in spreadsheets, Chris turned his focus to art: a realm where value is not just measured in returns, but in meaning and connection.

Art has always been a part of his story. As a child, he learnt to paint under the creative guidance of his grandfather. That early bond seeded a lifelong love of art.

A passionate traveller, he has journeyed across the globe, visiting some of the world's greatest galleries and standing before the most iconic and celebrated artworks in history.

Today, he brings together financial expertise and artistic passion to help others discover the joy of investing in something that they love.

Trident Fine Art is a place where investment meets passion and art finds its home.
