Marie Farrington, Sibyl Montague, Laura Ní Fhlaibhín and Liliane Puthod: Hammerheads
Curated by Brenda McParland, Hammerheads is a dynamic group exhibition featuring four young artists – Marie Farrington, Sibyl Montague, Laura Ni Fhlaibhin and Liliane Puthod which explores the materiality of contemporary sculpture and expanded practice. The exhibition will feature predominantly new works which have been made in response to the galleries – setting up new dialogues between the artists and their works.
Marie Farrington makes sculptures that uncover residual aspects of places by tracing the subtle forces and properties contained in materials. Her works emphasise the notion of surface as a point of intersection between sculptures, images and architectural forms.
Sibyl Montague’s practice explores how we regard, hold, and consume objects and experiences within a politics of care. Her work explores trans-disciplinary forms of usability or handheld, making assemblage based works that combine vegetable, textile, digital and poor material sources, with the hacking of commodity goods and media.
Laura Ní Fhlaibhín combines myth, personal recollection, ritual, oral histories, through sculptural installation and writing. Her work often draws upon modes of care – of self and others, humans and animals, objects and materials.
Liliane Puthod makes sculptures and large-scale interventions of what might be deemed to be a subversive appropriation of objects, images, and texts by using both industrial materials and handmade processes as a way to confront archaeological and commodified times.
