SUMMARY:SEAMS
DESCRIPTION:SEAMS\, a solo exhibition by Laura Wilson comprises of three installations including a significant new body of work entitled Winding then Winding. Laura is interested in how everyday materials such as bricks\, textile\, wheat\, salt and bread dough transmit historical and embodied knowledge between people over time and place. Laura develops research-led projects\, working with specialists and experts to communicate relationships between materiality\, memory and tacit knowledge\, explored through sculpture\, performance\, drawings and video. This exhibition is a survey of Laura’s recent works connected by the body\, learning\, movement and labour. \nOn the first day of the exhibition (Saturday 1st April) from 1 to 3pm\, artist Laura Wilson will begin weaving a piece of linen with her mother on the loom that forms part of her current exhibition\, SEAMS. Laura’s ancestors on her mother’s side worked in factories in Portadown and Lisburn as weavers\, warpers and yarn winders. Through this live weaving in the gallery space\, Laura is interested in exploring ways information is passed on from one person to another and between generations\, in particular how knowledge can be stored within the body. \nThroughout the run of the exhibition weavers are invited to continue the weaving started by Laura and her mother\, contributing to a collective weaving which will be removed on the last day of the exhibition. If you are a weaver and would like to contribute to the collective weaving please contact info@ccadld.org \nFind out more here. \n  \nImportant dates: \nSEAMS launches on Friday 31 March 2023\, from 7–9pm\n \nThe exhibition runs from the 1st April to the 3rd June. \nUsual opening hours are Tuesday-Saturday\, noon to 6pm. \n  \nImage credits: \nLaura Wilson\, Seams (detail)\, 2023\nImage courtesy of the artist.

SUMMARY:Spring Collectors' Showcase
DESCRIPTION:Craft NI Gallery are delighted to launch our ‘Spring Collectors’ Showcase’\, a unique exhibition of one-of-a-kind pieces made by some of the most established designer-makers in Northern Ireland. Following a visit from international collectors\, the gallery’s current selection shines a light on new work from some of Northern Ireland’s best contemporary craft makers.  \nThe exhibition will give the public a rare opportunity to view and acquire work from silversmith Cara Murphy\, renowned for her beautifully enamelled silver bowls\, woodturner Mark Hanvey as he unveils his new ‘Graft’ pieces\, or new glass work by Andrea Spencer and Scott Benefield. New or award-winning designs by Patricia Millar\, John McKeag\, Peter Meanley\, Alison Lowry\, David Cousley\, John Piekaar\, Sarah Cathers\, Michael Moore\, Chris McHugh\, Anna Smyth to name but a few make this event a perfect occasion to start (or add to) a cherished craft collection from local artists. \nJewellery gets a special spotlight: Egle Banyte shows her Wave brooch\, inspired by North European aesthetics; forward-thinking Anne Earls Boylan delights with her new SLS colourful 3D print designs; and Celine Traynor takes us on a time travel journey with her ‘Golden Years’ piece\, a kinetic pendant made up of 24 ever increasing rings that represent the 24 years that she lived in her house on Canal Street\, Newry\, before it was sold. \nCraft NI Gallery are looking forward to welcoming you to this exceptional event and we encourage you to visit us to see the full selection. The works\, spanning across different craft disciplines\, varied mediums and concepts\, will give the public a thorough understanding\, and hopefully a new appreciation of the talent\, craftsmanship and skill available in Northern Ireland.
