This Must Be The Place
This Must Be The Place is a solo show by John Brady exploring ideas of space, scale and materials.
On flying into a city at night, one gets a sense of a very small and vulnerable organism sprawling over hills and mountains. When one leaves the city the roads that divide the space between buildings become a conduit to the next town, village, home or farm building. In the country the empty space between buildings dominates your experience. In the exhibition, ‘This Must Be the Place’ you are invited you to explore some of these ideas of space, scale and materials and make your own connections.’
Mythlantics
28th March to May 5th @ Galway Arts Centre
Alice Rekab is an Irish Sierra Leonean artist based in Dublin. Rekab takes their identity as a starting point to examine the intersection of personal and shared historical and cultural narratives. They trace fragments of their mixed-race experience through body and mind, geographies and politics. Rekab revisits and reimagine archival items – photographs, objects – found in their own holdings and during their trips to Sierra Leone, and combines them with memories, oral accounts, field notes, and readings, all derived from their encounters with Irish and West African traditions, knowledges, spirituality, and materiality.
