In Pieces:
Navigating the Body in Contemporary Irish Art
Bassam Issa Al-Sabah, Aideen Barry, Amanda Coogan, Léann Herlihy, Riki Matsuda, Pádraig Spillane, Corban Walker
Curated by Chris Clarke
In Pieces looks at how Irish contemporary artists have explored the body as subject, material and medium. Its portrayal can signify identity, sexuality, vitality, illness, wholeness and disintegration, and, through works in various media, the exhibition addresses the ways in which we perceive ourselves. In emphasizing the fragmented body, the partial glimpse or reflection, In Pieces also recognizes the diversity of these representations.
