Susan Barnett @ Fashion & Textile Museum

Fashion & Textile Museum

In this remarkable compilation of photographs, Susan Barnett views her subjects through a single article of dress: the T-shirt. By excluding faces from her portraits, Barnett allows individuals to project their identity solely through the slogans on their backs and to soundlessly express passionate messages on sexuality, race, spirituality, consumerism, violence, pleasure, history, narcissism and […]

Magdalene Drwiega @ ASC Gallery

At first glance this pairing seems a fairly disparate one but closer inspection reveals a number of shared interests and aims in Another Kind of Tension.  Paul Housley tends to stick to figuration and plays around with the traditional genres of portraiture and still life. Magdalene Drwiega works in bold colours and bold forms, often using […]

Fiona Finnegan @ Domobaal

Domo Baal Gallery

Fiona Finnegan's images in The Frog Devoured the Sun, are simultaneously familiar and enigmatic. Searching for a feeling rather than a particular subject, she carefully erases the details which locate an image in a particular time or space and creates instead a sense of surreal timelessness; something from the past but not necessarily rooted in reality. The […]

Laura Gannon @ Kate Macgarry

Kate Macgarry

Laura Gannon’s new works are abstract drawings made with metallic ink on linen. The linen has been subjected to multiple processes to reveal its corporeality: folding, bending, wrinkling. Gannon describes these works as “sculptural drawings” or “performative drawings”, suggesting both their raw physicality and directness. Although having the bones of minimalism, Gannon circumnavigates straight lines, […]
