SUMMARY:Made in Ireland
DESCRIPTION:Made In Ireland celebrates the wealth and vibrancy of Ireland’s studio crafts. The exhibition presents work by over 110 craftspeople each creating beautiful\, considered objects using skills honed over many years. \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\, but most work away quietly perfecting their skill and promoting their work regionally. The Irish public has shown itself to have a lively interest in craft\, however\, is largely unaware of the diverse range and quality of work being produced in the country by skilled makers. At a time when many 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. \n

SUMMARY:Beyond Edges
DESCRIPTION:Joint exhibition by Andrea Spencer\, Nicola Nemec and Sharon Adams. \nBeyond Edges presents the work of three women artists living and working in North Antrim\, an area of open hills and dramatic coastlines perched at the northern edge of Ireland. Each of the three artists responds to the landscape through different materials – glass (Andrea Spencer); paint (Nicola Nemec); wood and metal (Sharon Adams). \nThis self-generated collaboration emerges from their common interest in lines and edges; seen and unseen; natural and manmade. Beyond Edges therefore explores where and how the edges of their practices meet and provides a space for their respective approaches to be explored together. \nVirtual Launch 2pm Friday 15 October via the Roe Valley Arts Centre Facebook Page \nMeet the Artists Event 10am to 1pm Saturday 23 October. Book here \n

SUMMARY:'Shuttles & Shafts' Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Craft NI are delighted to present the ‘Shuttles and Shafts’ exhibition\, a visual journey into the archives of one of Northern Ireland’s most prominent linen manufacturers and an insight into the work of the design partnership that have brought some of their classic patterns into the 21st century. \nPreviously suppliers to the Ritz and the White Star Line\,  glass design plates from the Ewart-Lidell Mill in Co. Down\, were donated to Belfast School of Art.  Senior Research Fellow\, Trish Belford and Professor of Design Barbara Dass have preserved\, catalogued and digitised the plates for future generations. \nTheir Heritage Lottery funded project Reviving William Liddell’s Damask Designs preserved a unique collection of 1600 photographic glass plates discovered in 2007 when the Ewart-Liddell linen factory at Donacloney\, Co Down was dismantled. Their initial research was exhibited at Lisburn Museum during the inaugural NI Linen Biennale in 2018\, and the resulting contemporary textiles are now in production at William Clark and Sons of Upperlands.

SUMMARY:What Colour is Metal?
DESCRIPTION:Group exhibition considering the relationship between metal and colour in contemporary silversmithing and jewellery\, with a mapping of relationships and practice in key centres internationally. It examines approaches ranging from colour achieved using the inherent properties of metal to react with other chemicals or heat (or a combination); the reveal of colour as a property of the metal itself; infusing the surface of aluminium with pure colour or image; the use of enamel glazes with varying degrees of transparency and opacity – but always with a fundamentally strong relationship with the surface qualities of the metal. \nJane Adam | Peter Bauhuis | Edmond Byrne | Stuart Cairns | Alison Counsell | Rebecca de Quin | Christine Graf | Koji Hatakeyama | Nicola Heidemann | Kaori Juzu | Toru Kaneko | Ruth Laird | Jose Marin | Cecilia Moore | John Moore | Cara Murphy | Thanh-Truc Nguyen | Cóilín Ó Dubhghaill | Michael Rowe | Ryuhei Sako | Simone ten Hompel | Adi Toch | Jessica Turrell | Roxanne Simone | Max Warren \nThe exhibition is scheduled to run October 2021 to February 2022\, the exact dates published here are provisional. \nAccompanied by a series of Meet the Maker online talks in April-May 2021. \nSeries 2 of online talks in October 2021 \n

SUMMARY:Thinking Out Loud
DESCRIPTION:An exhibition of abstract stitched textiles by Patricia Kelly \n\n\n\n\n\n  \n\n\nPatricia\, who lives in Co. Fermanagh\, attended the Ulster University in Belfast where she obtained a B.A Honors degree in Fine Craft Design. \nSpecialising in embroidered textiles\, Patricia has always been inspired by the ever-changing colour\, light and texture of the landscape and skies in the west of Ireland. She constantly pushes her work in new directions exploring images through drawing and paint\, but finally realising her outcomes through the medium of textile employing the use of free motion embroidery techniques. \nPatricia’s work has become much more abstract in recent times with a greater focus on the use of the stitched line. The repetitive use of shape and mark has become an increasingly important aspect of her work which imbues a meditative quality. \n

SUMMARY:Translating Linen
DESCRIPTION:Exhibition showcasing the award winning Translating Linen project\, which features a digital music piece created from the DNA structure of flax overlaid with the sights and sounds of Northern Ireland’s Linen Mills\, and a large scale artwork on linen. \nVisual Artist Robert Peters was invited to respond to Dr. O’Kane’s translation of Linen DNA pictorially.

SUMMARY:'Beyond Darkness' exhibition by Susan Mannion
DESCRIPTION:A new exhibition by Boyle based visual artist Susan Mannion\, Beyond Darkness features works of enamel on steel and copper in response to the past few months of living with COVID restrictions. The exhibition includes a large scale enamel work depiction of being contained in a small space and looking towards nature and the outdoors for emotional balance. \nThe elements of nature run through the exhibition\, reflecting our dependency upon it as a means to escape from our enclosed spaces during lockdown. This body of work has grown out of a sense of restless energy and a need for change and adaption. \nOriginally from Omagh\, Susan is now currently based in the west of Ireland where she is a printmaker and copper enamellist. Susan is influenced by landscape and patterns in nature\, her work evolving from observed detail captured by sketching then laying down the image onto the block or copper surface creating intricate thread-like lines and fine textural incisions to create an atmospheric\, surreal asthetic\, distilling a sense of place\, time and memory. Susan has exhibited work nationally and internationally with her work being held in several public and private collections worldwide. She has been awarded several commissions and residencies including The Dock\, Cill Rialaig\, Valerie Earley Award\, Tyrone Guthrie Residency Award\, Arts-Science Residency Award and the MI-Lab Mokuhanga six week residency in Japan. \n  \nGalleries are open Tues\, 10-4 / Wed & Thurs\, 10-4 & 7-9 / Fri 10-3 / Sat 10-1

SUMMARY:1845: Memento Mori
DESCRIPTION:1845: Memento Mori is a famine memorial and glass installation of 1\,845 blown glass potatoes dedicated to the 19th-century Great Irish Famine\, created by Seattle-based Irish artist Paula Stokes.\n1845 is significant as it references the year that the potato blight came to Ireland\, marking the beginning of a period of mass starvation\, disease\, and emigration. Between 1845 and 1852\, over 1.5 million people died\, and 1 million emigrated to Australia\, Canada and America. The form of the installation differs in response to specific locations\, changing shape and volume depending on light\, accessibility and exposure of each site.\nAt the Ulster American Folk Park it will be installed in the Single Room Cabin\, which dates from the late 1700s to early 1800s and is an example of the type of dwelling occupied by many poor tenant farmers. It will be the only venue for the installation in Northern Ireland.\nThe fragility of the glass potatoes is representative both of the vulnerability and of resilience of those who died and those who survived the famine. Paula Stokes was born in Ireland butmoved to Seattle in 1993 to pursue a career in glass. Her glass work has been shown extensively both nationally and internationally. As a modern-day member of the Irish diaspora\, Stokes’ glass installations reflect on her own history as an immigrant to examine historical events that have shaped the present.\nShe believes that ‘1845: Memento Mori will resonate with a wide variety of audiences as it reminds us of our own fragile humanity and serves as a connection between shared human experiences in the past and present’.\nThis project has been generously supported by the Thomas Dammann Junior Memorial Trust and is displayed in partnership with Craft NI for August Craft Month.
