Tapestry | Sean Scully at Kerlin Gallery

Event Details

‘Tapestry’ brings together four bodies of work, each rooted in a deep engagement with the emotional potential of abstraction. It begins with a series of recent pencil-on-paper drawings, intimate in scale and delicately rendered. Alongside these are a number of hand-woven tapestries, produced in collaboration with master craftsmen at Mourne Textiles. These are shown in conversation with new large-scale paintings from the Stack series — shown here for the first time — these works merge drawing, painting and spray paint to create layered works that hover between architectural weight and painterly gesture.
