About
Gintlíocht is an exhibition of contemporary artwork on the theme of heritage skills and crafts, in partnership with PSsquared Gallery (Belfast). The exhibition brings together eight artist/artist groups who will be showing work on the theme across the site for the month of August.
The artist are; Susan Hughes, Dorothy Hunter, Tara McGinn, Emma Brennan, artist collaborators Sinéad Bhreathnach Cashell, Jayne Cherry and Alice Clarke, Grace McMurray, Gerard Carson and collective Soft Fiction Projects.
The word Gintlíocht in Irish translates to an unexplainable manipulation of materials, this metamorphosis could be described as sorcery.
Their artistic practice spans traditional methods and materials into contemporary practice and approaches working in mediums of sculpture, textile, photography and video, as well as live performance.
Each of the artists are rooted into the contemporary art scene based in Belfast, bringing these works into the unfamiliar setting of Ulster Folk Museum can inform our thinking of traditional methods and how they have impacted our lives today.
This exhibition is part of NI Craft Month, the Linen Biennale 2023 and supported by PSsquared, Belfast.
