The Presentation Arts Centre is proud to announce that the exhibition Cur Amach Anaithnid; An Unknown Familiarity by visual artist Sheena Furlong is finally coming to our gallery in July.

Sheena Furlong is a painter and workshop facilitator who works from her studio in the rural village of Kilmuckridge. The Ford Studio was established one year ago in November 2019 as a working studio, offering classes and insight into studio practice for those interested to learn.

This exhibition was originally due to show in our gallery in 2020, however the emergence of Covid-19 brought unprecedented challenges to those working in the arts sector, including the cancelation of exhibitions such as Cur Amach Anaithnid; An Unknown Familiarity as gallery spaces across the country went into lockdown.

We are now pleased to confirm that Sheena's textural and vibrant observations of seasonal changes in Kilmuckridge will hang proud in our gallery this summer.

Living Collage
An Exhibition By Kitsch Doom
Opening September 4th at 7pm

​Please note that this exhibition opening night will take place under relevant COVID-19 guidelines, please visit our Covid-19 guidelines for up to date information on the event and to book a place where necessary. This event is free to attend. 

Inspired by theories on gender, sociology, and posthumanism, Kitsch transforms themselves and volunteers into fictional characters through acting techniques such as improvisation and the Method. Through performance, video, photography, and social media experiments Kitsch explores new ways of conceptualising ‘the self’.

Kitsch creates work about the many layering processes behind human identity, and how we are now living in a strange, chaotic time in the world that lies in-between dated traditional values and trailblazing digital realities. Undoubtedly, the imprint of man is changing.

In a world where being human isn't cutting it, where does our sense of self lie? 

"An interesting local gallery bringing an eclectic range of emerging and established artists to their annual open exhibition."
