SUMMARY:'Paper Magic' Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Craft NI are delighted to welcome you to their upcoming exhibition\, ‘Paper Magic’. The exhibition will focus on the medium of paper\, one of the oldest and most familiar materials known to man\, and its hidden potential of transformation. Through their artful mastery of skills such as cutting\, pulping\, folding\, oiling and collaging\, five talented makers will reveal the magical properties of paper in this new group show. \nPaper has been with us from ancient times to the present\, a constant companion recording our art\, our ideas\, our transactions and\, sometimes\, quietly changing the course of history itself. We take this flat\, flimsy and ephemeral material for granted\, yet it also has the power to be transformed.  \nThe exhibition features papier mache sculptures\, collages and large scale mixed media pieces\, and highlights unique techniques such as  Momigami – a Japanese paper kneading technique using oil which transforms paper into a fibrous material which can then be stitched. \nExhibiting makers: Sue Cathcart\, Jayne Cherry\, Susan McKeever\, Adele Pound\, Emma Whitehead. \nThe five participating artists share a common passion for paper but their creative output is as diverse as it is intriguing\, a testament to how this fragile material can be used to bring ideas to life.

SUMMARY:'Made in Ireland' Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The F.E. McWilliam Gallery and Armagh City\, Banbridge and Craigavon Borough Council are delighted to present Made In Ireland. A celebration of the wealth and vibrancy of Ireland’s studio crafts\, the exhibition presents work by over 110 craftspeople from 27 counties\, each creating beautiful\, considered objects using skills honed over many years. Supported by Design & Crafts Council Ireland and  managed by the creative team of Hilary Morley\, Stephen O’Connell and Mary Gallagher\, Made In Ireland comes to the F.E. McWilliam Gallery after successful runs at the National Design & Craft Gallery in Kilkenny and Farmleigh Gallery\, Dublin. \nIreland’s makers\, working in and across different sectors\, are creating innovative work of high quality. Makers work in local and carefully sourced materials\, across all regions of our island. Some are household names\, some work away quietly perfecting their skill and promoting their work locally and regionally. The Irish public has shown itself to have a lively interest in craft\, however\, they are largely unaware of the diverse range and quality of work being produced in the country by skilled makers. \nSelected after an open call\, Made In Ireland showcases the skill of potters\, glassmakers\, textile artists\, woodturners\, basket makers\, gold and silversmiths\, metalsmiths and furniture makers. Exhibitors include makers of international renown as well as young\, emerging artists and those who have practised quietly in areas of the country such as Clare Island\, West Cork and the North Antrim Coast.  Some are members of Design & Crafts Council Ireland’s Portfolio Critical Selection\, while others are makers who practise away from the spotlight and national attention. \nAt a time when many people are showing a considerable preference and appreciation for goods that are Irish made\, we can think of no better time to create a colourful\, inclusive exhibition that shows the very best of what is Made In Ireland.
