SUMMARY:MATERIAL ALCHEMY
DESCRIPTION:MATERIAL ALCHEMY\, an exhibition by mixed media artist Sarah Cathers\, opens at Craft NI Gallery on February 5th\, Late Night Art! \n\n\nThe exhibition celebrates the process of fostering curiosity and indulging in play. Intrigued by the parallels connecting the work of an artist and an alchemist\, Sarah explores the art of transformation; documenting the journey of finding a curious object\, experimenting with its properties and potential\, and working towards a ‘eureka!’ moment. \n\n\nAlchemy is the process of converting base metals into gold. Similarly\, Sarah works with seemingly worthless\, discarded materials\, altering them to create treasured artefacts. \n\n\n“A naturally curious collector\, I mend and combine matter\, assembling small sculptures\, juxtaposing the unlikely to create a tangible record of the environment and people. I curate objects of intrigue in ‘families’ based on an instinctive response or relationship between materials. Fascinated by adhesives and their ability to secure and fasten\, I focus on the binding capabilities of thread\, using fibres to document and repair. I aim to preserve an object’s history\, acknowledging the past while recognising new potential. Like an alchemist\, I indulge in the process of measuring out and combining different quantities of substances\, in the hope of striking gold.” \n\nIn this exhibition\, Sarah explores a range of responses to found objects\, celebrating the instinctive creative process that can (if lucky) yield exciting reactions and unexpected results for the alchemist.

SUMMARY:For the love of dog (and other creatures)
DESCRIPTION:Eleanor Wheeler’s work explores the deep interconnection between humans\, animals\, and the natural world\, drawing on symbolism\, metaphor\, and the storytelling traditions of myth and folklore. Animals appear as recurring figures – symbolic\, emotive\, and often occupying the space between the wild and the domestic. Through dynamic ceramic forms and richly textured surfaces\, the artist examines themes of transformation\, instinct\, and the balance between control and surrender. Elemental forces—wind\, weather\, movement— are integral to both her subject matter and her process\, mirroring the unpredictable nature of working with clay at scale. \n  \nAssociated Workshop\nAnimal Tiles for 18+ yrs | Saturday 28 February | 10am-4pm
