The Nature of Tables | Sona Shiel at Kevin Kavanagh Gallery
Shiel’s series of new works for The Nature of Tables, explores instability, connection, positioning, and all the gory spills of time. These works emerge from the artist’s own experience of empty-nesting and its forced reckoning with new growth. They reflect the de-familiarised forms of a family life, detached from prior location and purpose, disembodied from context, and flattened into elemental shapes.

Dialogue between form and content | Doru Ivan at the National Museum of Romanian Literature
Dialogue between form and content presents a compelling series of oil paintings that delve into the complexities of human identity, emotion, and perception. Through expressive forms and layered abstraction, Doru transforms the canvas into a space of reflection and introspection, where the boundaries between the physical and the metaphysical begin to blur.

Talk | Éadaoin Glynn in Conversation with Kim Crowley at Studio 12
Join artist Éadaoin Glynn and curator Kim Crowley for an in-person conversation exploring the ideas and processes behind the exhibition The Slow Moon Climbs. They will discuss Glynn's research and her physical approach to painting while touching on subjects such as identity, midlife and the cultural invisibility imposed on women as they age. They will explore what it might mean to make space for an understanding of female midlife, positioning it as a threshold for possibility and transformation.

The Good Neighbour | Group Exhibition at Esker Arts
The Good Neighbour is a group exhibition curated by Rachel Botha. Through an open call format artists from Offaly and its neighbouring counties Galway, Roscommon, Tipperary, Laois, Westmeath, Kildare and Meath were invited to propose an artwork that engaged with the idea of ‘the good neighbour’. This could be interpreted as the central subject or an intrinsic approach to the making of the work, and understood from varied positions.
