Claire Mulcahy's paintings in exhibition is closely related to the changing rural landscape of the N76 route from Callan to Kilkenny and the changing urban landscape of the Brewhouse at the Abbey Quarter in Kilkenny City.

Combining an interest in history and Art, the layers of colour and textures represent for her the layers of history, lives lived in long abandoned houses.
KCAT tutor, Rachel Burke said that both Claire and Mary worked extremely hard on this amazing body of work.
"KCAT are so proud of their Open Studio artists. This exhibition also celebrates a long lasting creative partnership with St. Luke's Hospital," she said.
