Location: Ballina Arts Centre
Overlap: Majella Clancy
Official Opening: Wednesday 5th May, 8pm
Overlap features work from Majella Clancy’s ongoing investigation into painted space/place. Working from an archive of photographic imagery taken from various sources, she is interested in creating ‘real and imagined spaces through the translation and miss-translation’ of the collected imagery.
Through the process of digital manipulation and paint the images become removed from their original source allowing ambiguity to enter between the painted and photographic elements.
Colour plays an important role in how the paint is applied to allow for various readings of pictorial space, blurring the distinctions between perceptions of reality and memory, technology and technique.
The notion of what can be considered ‘real’ changes with the shifting sense of focus and perspective dependent on the viewer’s physical and figurative point of view.
Free admission.
All are welcome to attend, exhibition runs until 29th May.
