Áit Eile | Stephanie McLaughlin at Engage Art Studios

Event Details

Engage Art Studios is delighted to announce our new summer weekly showcase exhibition, Áit Eile, paintings by orbital member Stephanie McLaughlin showcases the artist’s relationship with her environment. It is a show about depicting ‘other places ‘literally and also refers to abstraction being a different form of painting to literal representation. Landscape painting has a history of being bourgeois/ conservative, as opposed to contemporary/ abstract art. Can this work bridge the divide? There is a risk of a painting being neither an interesting landscape nor an interesting abstract painting. Hopefully the gestural elements make for interesting work
