Join artist Niamh O’Malley and Dr Sarah Hayden (University of Southampton) online as they discuss O’Malley’s current exhibition at John Hansard Gallery.

Currently on show in our Gallery 1, we are excited to present recent and newly commissioned work by Niamh O’Malley, a contemporary Irish artist known for her highly crafted sculptures and moving image installations. In 2022, O’Malley will represent Ireland at the 59th Venice Biennale.

Niamh O’Malley uses steel, limestone, wood and glass to create a considered and purposeful sequence of forms. From polished wooden handles and sanded slivers of glass to stretched lines of steel, there is an assurance in O’Malley’s work of something still and solid.

The talk will be hosted via Zoom. Book your free ticket here: bit.ly/NiamhOMalleyInConversation

A John Hansard Gallery exhibition presented in partnership with RHA Gallery, Dublin. A new publication featuring texts by Claire-Louise Bennett, Isobel Harbison and Niamh O’Malley accompanies the exhibition, published by RHA.

The exhibition continues until 26 February 2022.
