Kellie O’Dempsey Exhibition Essay by Dr Louise R Mayhew | 20.09.23

“…The artist’s projected outlines, which multiply, repeat, and gently loop, can be interpreted as visualizations of her shattered sense of subjectivity. The work is both literally and pictorially an attempt by O’Dempsey to maintain an artistic identity while also filling the shifting roles of daughter, nurse, sibling, administrator.”

Flesh for Fantasy Exhibition Essay by David M Thomas | 23.06.23

“How do we reflect on art? And how do we reflect on the sensuous in art? Painting for some is an art activity, others a profession, some a hobby, and for a few it is a life—or life force. Natalie Lavelle is one of the latter. For Lavelle, painting is so central to her personhood..”

“To view an Angela Brennan painting is to be embraced by colour. The artist’s iconic combinations of radiating hues and soft forms are atmospheric, an effect enhanced by their often immersive scale.
