SUMMARY:In Search of Light
DESCRIPTION:A solo exhibition by visual Karen Hamilton which translates the intangible phenomenon of light – the force that enables us to see and engage with our environment – into tangible woven textiles. Showcasing work developed throughout the artist’s undergraduate degree and new experimental weaving\, Hamilton explores the characteristics of light\, both artistically through colour and form\, and scientifically. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe collection celebrates weaving heritage through techniques and materials\, particularly linen and cotton associated with Ards and North Down.  Affirming the contemporary relevance of weaving at the intersection of art\, craft and science\, this immersive installation invites viewers to observe light closely and experience its potential.

SUMMARY:Surface Matters Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:In this exhibition Claire French explores how both form and surface of a vessel can embody a personal narrative and energy\, enabling exploration of human memory and experience. While the surface encompasses artistic expression\, it also acts as a canvas extending the narrative within the form. Eroded\, scraped surfaces will metaphorically reflect how time wears down body and mind\, transforming alluring\, smooth textures into dry\, skins that are not what they seem. \nThough visually appealing\, surfaces can evoke memory through touch. Using burnishing\, scraping and dry glazing\, Claire has created tactile works inviting connection\, questioning what lies beneath\, and encouraging personal reflection through organic vessels of varying forms. \nThe opening night is on 27 August from 7-9pm. Please check the web site for opening hour for the exhibition which is on until 19 September.
