Three artists at The Dock
Running until December 2, Banbha McCann, Fionna Murray, Andy Parsons: Three artists at The Dock is open from Tuesday to Saturday, 10am-5pm. Admission is free.
Each artist presents a suite of paintings reflecting on intimacy, memory, and joy in remembered, imagined, and constructed spaces.
Through her work, Dublin based Banbha McCann explores questions of material reality, the emotional charge of spaces and things, and how these concerns overlap and combine in our environment.
London born Fionna Murray studied at Chelsea College of Art before moving to Ireland and graduating with an MFA at the University of Ulster in 1997. Living and working in Galway, she has exhibited widely throughout Ireland, the UK, and Europe.
Through ‘The Dancers’ , Sligo-based artist, Andy Parsons explores the universality of music and dance, and the idea of joy, using imagery based on nightclubbing and the Northern Soul scene. Originally released in the 1960’s, the music that became known as Northern Soul, did not enjoy commercial success immediately, but subsequently became popular in clubs in Northern England, as part of an underground scene in the 1970s and ‘80s, and has become a worldwide phenomenon.
