ORIGINS 2021

ORIGINS 2021 features the work of graduate artists from across the country and takes place at St Carthage Hall, Chapel St, Lismore.

Exhibiting artists: Karolina Adamczak, Aoife Costello, Rachel Daly, Fiona Gordon, Sarah Louise Lordan, Kate McElroy, Bríanna Ní Léanacháin, Elsie Van Dam.

The 8 artists included in Origins 2021 represent some of the ambition and varied themes being explored across a new generation of artists. In particular this year a theme stood out across the graduate exhibitions, exploring issues of sexual politics, identity, equality and the female gaze. With a diverse range of perspectives and practices, ORIGINS 2021 suggests that artists are very much engaged with some of the most important issues facing us today, and how we navigate pathways forward.

ORIGINS is an annual exhibition held each autumn in St Carthage Hall as a way of presenting emerging new artists in a gallery context, alongside Lismore Castle Arts respected programme of international artists.
