Event Details
Exhibition continues from 22nd of August to the 7th of September 2025
Manner-isms brings together two artists, A.S. Dutton and Francine Marquis, whose practices explore material, memory, and the passage of time.
Through stone, clay, plaster, fabric, and wood, the works in this exhibition examine how care, environment, and human touch shape—and are shaped by—the spaces and materials we live among.
In these pieces, the domestic and the elemental meet; personal narratives and geological timescales overlap. The result is a conversation between slow change and sudden shift, between the persistence of stone and the fragility of the body, between material and self.
You are invited to explore these minute characteristics ever-present in our surroundings and re-experience yourself among them.
Manner-isms will run from the 22nd of August to the 7th of September. Come and join us on Friday the 22nd of August at 6pm for the opening of this exhibition!
Open daily from 12pm-6pm at 126 Artist-Run Gallery, 15 St. Bridget’s Place, Galway. 126 thanks the Burren College of Arts, the Arts Council of Ireland and Galway City Council for their collaboration and support.
