"LIGHT HUNGRY" 23 / 11 - 7 / 12 / 2024
Laura Davis, Sylee Gore, Jules Sprake: three poet–artists explore light in dark days
Open Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 14h-18h
This is an exhibition of visual poetry bringing together the work of 3 poet-artists: Laura Davis, Sylee Gore and Jules Sprake. Some of the poems are wordless; others find words. On display is the space between images and written words: a space of to and fro. Emphasis of attention is given over to the viewer – and the reader. Through textiles, sculpture, printmaking, photography, and words, these poet–artists come together for the first time to explore light as a productive concept in making poetry.
This event also marks the launch of the pamphlet LIGHT HUNGRY which is published by Moormaid Press (UK). Copies of the pamphlet will be available for sale for €10. Other poetry collections by the exhibiting artists will also be available throughout the event.

These works are small in scale but at the same time profoundly impactful. A figurative painter, Martinery grapples with the universal themes of nature, humanity, mortality. The colour palet is sober and restrained, the artist's use of light and shade and contrast gives the impression that light is emanating from the canvas itself. The images emerge slowly, they invite the viewer to pause and take the time to look and consider each work. One is reminded of the work of the great Belgian artists, Michaël Borremans and Luc Tuymans.
