Pieces from the Stay With Me exhibition

Today is the final day of the Stay With Me art exhibition at the In-spire Gallerie on 56, Lower Gardiner Street, Dublin 1.

The exhibition consists of artworks created by people moved by the Tuam Babies story.

The gallery writes:

We will have a screening of Mia Mullarkey’s ‘Mother and Baby’ along with the artists coming together to reflect on what has been an emotional but rewarding journey for them.

All are welcome to join us at the gallery from 12pm to 9pm [today] and have a final chance to see these beautiful works by artists from Ireland and abroad in honour of The Tuam Babies and our celebration of Love.

Broadsheet understands that such has been the reaction to the exhibition that it is hoped it will be brought to other towns across Ireland and abroad in the near future.

The exhibition was officially opened by RTÉ journalist Philip Boucher Hayes two weeks ago.

The Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale Arts Festival in Japan is a 50-day event that happens every three years, linking 200 villages across 19,000km² of mountainous terrain in Nigata, Japan.

160 artists all working to a single unified theme, to wit, ‘humans are part of nature’.

This year sees the publication of a book, showcasing the 800 artworks created since the festival began in 2000. The organisers pride themselves on the  deliberately sprawling nature of the event (at which it’s virtually impossible to see all the art) describing it as an “absolutely inefficient approach deliberately at odds with the rationalization and efficiency of modern society.”

Excellent.
