E2 is a contemporary art consultancy based in Chester, founded by artist Elizabeth MacDonald and designer Emma Maxwell.

Drawing on their combined experience in fine art, interior design, and events, E2 curates and hosts a series of exhibitions and collaborations-bringing fresh, contemporary work to new audiences.

What makes E2 unique is the dual perspective it offers: the trained eye of an artist and the spatial awareness of a designer. This collaboration ensures that every piece we recommend or commission is not only visually striking, but also thoughtfully suited to your space-whether at home, in the workplace, or in a public setting.

E2 works with both private and commercial clients, offering bespoke advice on art collections and sourcing one-of-a-kind pieces. From original commissions to curated collections, we connect clients with established and emerging artists locally and nationally.

Our focus is on creating new opportunities to discover and collect contemporary art-from Chester and beyond
