Projects

Alien Architecture is a an ongoing response to both Henry’s advice and to the alien specimens found in the collection. Presenting work made over the past two years, this exhibition acts as a conduit for conversation, asking; What is a landscape when it is architected by industry?

The Pinch is an installation of wax rubbings, paper coins, a bench, and a bookwork followed by a performance. Paid for with money scoured from the streets of Dublin, the installation explores the potential of public funding, city mining, and social entrepreneurialism toward decelerated economic opportunities.

Studio amigos during our time in Dublin, this exhibition is a chanceto reunite and continue our conversation about the formal, historicaland emotional aspects of painting.

Origins is a series of paintings investigating the physicality of paint as object and furthermore how it can be used to create the impression of form and movement without the means of a traditional perspective space.

“Nimmo’s Pier” is an exhibition of recent paintings by Carlow-based artist Jules Michael. Made in her rural studio over the previous eighteen months, the works consist of mostly large-scale, abstracted images, the paintings utilising ideas and sources derived from remnants in architecture and the built environment.

Beatland is an exhibition of paintings by Dublin based artist Chanelle Walshe. The paintings depict human organs, the heart and lungs, in various energetic states.

Part how-to manual, part history, and part socio-political critique, Artist-Run Europe looks at the conditions, organisational models, and role of artist-led practice within contemporary art and society.

Periodical Review (2011–ongoing) is a long-running curatorial project which sets out to consider, revisit and review current movements within contemporary art practices from around Ireland.

In the making presents a taste of the future. For three weeks in February-March 2016, Pallas Projects provides an exciting platform for emerging art practices, hosting three consecutive exhibitions of new work by degree year students from IADT’s BA in Art.

Studio is an exhibition of paintings where I explore the nature of contemporary artist’s spaces, particularly those in the artist-run Wickham St Studios, in Limerick.

Contrapposto is used to describe how sculpture contains opposing actions that play against each other as a way to create movement and tension.

In Primitive Pathways, Gráinne Tynan presents new work inspired by medical science and shamanism. Through sculpture, drawing, and installation, the exhibition illustrates the artist’s search for resonances between our shared physiology and our primal mark-making instincts.
