Whispers of the Countryside | Paul Galligan at the Townhall Arts Centre Gallery
Exhibition continues until Friday, 10th July 2026.

A solo exhibition by Paul Galligan, designed by Mark St. John Ellis.

Paul’s work consists of large-scale charcoal and soft pastel drawings that focus on the local Irish rural landscape.

He approaches these subjects as individual presences, creating oversized images that generate an almost three-dimensional effect. The drawings are highly physical and expressive.

CHOKE | Claire Morgan at Stiftung Bartels Fondation
CHOKE : A meditation on grief and the alchemy of the abject.

This intimate, artist-initiated presentation of deeply personal new work coincides with Basel’s international art week, marking the culmination of a 3-month residency at Stiftung Bartels Fondation.

Choke dismantles the intellectual narratives we construct to distance ourselves from natural cycles, offering a poignant reminder that humans are animals, in all their frailty and beauty.

SONANCE | Siobhán McDonald at Taylor Galleries
The exhibition SONANCE brings together a series of abstract works on Japanese paper, canvas and wood through which the artist explores states of transition. The sources of the paintings include references to ancient geological maps, the edges of seascapes, exposing the layers of the Anthropocene and human displacement. An engagement with realms of deep time informs the imagery, transforming the invisible and the imagined into a resonant visual language.
