When darkness falls from the air - Solo Exhibition by Hannah Breslin

Image
The content of the work derives from two distinct but not dissimilar sources. The first source is Emily Dickinson's poem 'I heard a fly buzz when I died' which describes the physical act of dying punctuated by a fly buzzing around the room. The second source is the psychological phenomenon of depersonalisation which can be described as the feeling of being divorced from ones own personal physicality. Both of these sources depict a splitting between the physical and psychological self. The work attempts to manifest this intangible sense of splitting in a number of ways. The video works illustrate the desire to regain control of the body - to become real/whole again - to reintegrate the physical and the psychological. The installations represent an attempt to become 're-grounded' in reality while the fly from Emily Dickinson's poem represents reality in all its mundanity. The overarching theme is one of psychological and personal crisis. This is Ha

China Through the Lens of John Thomson 1868-1872

Image
This exhibition is devoted to images of China by Scottish photographer John Thomson (1837-1921). Born in Edinburgh Thomson first travelled to Asia in 1862, where he set up a professional photographic studio.  Fascinated by local cultures, Thomson returned in 1868, settling in Hong Kong.  Over the next four years he made extensive trips to Guangdong, Fujian, Beijing, China’s north-east and down the Yangtze.  This exhibition is drawn from his time in these regions. In the early days of photography, when negatives were made on glass plates, a cumbersome mass of equipment was required but Thomson was nevertheless able to capture a wide variety of images.  His works present the human aspects of life in China through the extensive record of everyday-street scenes, rarely captured by other photographers of that era. After returning to Britain, Thomson took an active role informing the public about China, through illustrated lectures and publications.  In 1920, he wrote to H

Allotments by Brigid O'Brien

Image
Signal is proud to present the exhibition of paintings and drawings by artist Brigid O’Brien.  Brigid has exhibited widely in group shows in Dublin, Wicklow and London.  She has worked with other artists and people with disabilities, designing gardens and painting murals in places of long –term care.  As an artist, drawings are her specialty, she has a unique quirky view of life which she portrays in her work.  Allotments were a feature of the earlier part of the last century. I recall observing the patterns left by them on railway banks around Dublin in the nineteen sixties. Quaint, they looked, old fashioned and definitely part of our past.  Fifty years later, in tall glass buildings, decisions are made that affect all of us. A sense of anxiety is now seemingly part of what we are.  Outside of the economics, the protests and resignations, a new movement has started. It is an underground revolution. It is happening in your area. It has infiltrated schools, business
