It was great to be back in Cork for the opening of the exhibition A Matter of Time curated by Dawn Williams at the Crawford Art Gallery. Being in Cork for a few days gave me the time to be involved in the installation of the work but also to have time to myself to revisit the spaces and places which were so much a part of the years I spent living and working in Cork. Most of these memories were happy ones, some were bittersweet and some were difficult and sad - such is life - the choices we make and the circumstances that force change. On a professional note, however, the experience was entirely positive and I was thrilled to have my name mentioned on the same page as the sublime Rebecca Horn, never mind having my work shown in the same space as hers! I will be back in Cork at the end of February as part of an 'in conversation' with Joy Gerrard (whose work can be seen top right) and I look forward to having more time to revisit all the excellent work in the show. There are links to press coverage in the 'Press' section of this site (obviously!) and there will be more updates in March regarding another projects with the Talk4Peace initiative and the NI Festival of Ideas. Watch this space!
