Last month Ormond members created work for the public facing windows in Ormond Studios. Our central location in Dublin city and the daily views from our two main windows became the framework for each artist to develop a new work. The series was launched on June 5th with a week long program by artists; Holly pickering, Anna Stuart, Mary Kervick, Sinead Kampff, Johnny O’Grady and Emma Battlebury.
Program:
Day 1. The Signal by Holly Pickering
Day 2. Untitled by Anna Stuart
Day 3. An Apparition by Mary Kervick
Day 4. At a Glance by Sinead Kampff
Day 6. Untitled (Ambivalent) by Johnny O’Grady
Day 7. L’Hotel Liffey/ Inside Job by Emma Battlebury (Inside Job is a short story written by Emma which accompanies her window piece.)
Thank you to everyone who came by to see the work!
Ormond Art Studios is an artist-led initiative in Dublin city and is a platform for emerging visual artists. It supports the development of arts practice through affordable studio provision, critical discourse and space for events, residencies and exhibitions.
The physical studios consists of eight individual artist's spaces along with a separate area that serves as the Project Space. The Project Space offers scope for work on a larger scale, embodied practice and experimentation. It is in this space that feedback sessions, events and exhibitions happen.
We believe that critical discourse is hugely beneficial to developing a professional arts practice and essential to a dynamic arts community. Ormond Art Studios encourages members to open up their practise to peer critique and facilitates lively feedback sessions, residencies, and information/skills sharing initiatives. We believe in collaboration and connect with other creative initiatives to develop a network of support for artist‐led endeavours in Dublin and beyond.
