Dark Pictures: Recent Drawings by Ciara Dunne

Ulster Hall Group Space
Tuesday 13th July - Saturday 24th July
Free

In this body of work, the artist reflects on the themes of decay, dreams and psychological territories. Though never narrative in a linear sense, the presence of certain imagery represents the psychic concerns of the ‘protaganist’ in each of the drawings. Suggesting a nebulous state, where time /dimension are maleable.

‘Ciara wants to create images that are sinister but negotiable, encouraging the viewer to interpret the work in their own way’. As part of the launch on 13 July she has chosen the films, Maya Deren’s Meshes of the Afternoon (1947) and Charles Laughton’s The Night of the Hunter (1955), both are important influences for the artist.

Ciara Dunne lives in Edinburgh. She is part of the Spoom Collective and has taken part in various live-art events including Urban Eyes, BASE and trans workshops.
