“Shárú is a group exhibition bringing together the work of ten artists. The exhibition reflects a multicultural and multinational group of artists working in Ireland today. Together they present painting drawing sculpture and photography that explore ideas of identity roots and ongoing transformation.
At the heart of Shárú is the belief that the artist is someone who transcends. From the first spark of an idea through engagement with materials and into the final act of making the work the everyday practice of art becomes an act of transformation. These processes lift material objects into a deeper space of meaning while also inviting moments of reflection and growth for both the artist and the viewer.”
