We are pleased to welcome Aaron Smyth who is an Irish contemporary artist working between Dublin and Glasgow. For 24hourwindow Aaron has made Sedes Sapientiae ~ a section of his most recently private commissioned piece, which is hand-drawn on to encaustic tiles. Visually, the work incorporates the aesthetic style of paper-based works but fragments over a grid to further distort the image. Thematically the work explores the narrative of Salome in a contemporary context.

Smyth studied at The National College of Art and Design, Dublin from 2011-2015. He is commencing the MFA programme in GSA in September 2022.

Since graduating NCAD he has exhibited extensively nationally and internationally with works held in public and private collections. He has been awarded Artist-in-Residence positions alongside GUM Collective in The National Gallery of Ireland, The Royal Hibernian Academy and Black Church Printmakers. During this time he has also been the recipient of the Mary Cawley Bursary, and the D-Light BLOW Photo Award and the STEP Grant from the European Cultural Foundation & Compagnia di San Paolo.

Supplementary to his practice Smyth works in an education capacity in The Glasgow School of Art, co-founded the Irish artist collective GUM in 2013, and acted as a representative of the National College of Art and Design in The MasterApprentice Programme, Kunstpodium T in 2015. Also holding the position of Artist Curator of The Creative Campus Programme 2017 in RUA RED.

SKULLCAP: Memorabilia of instances; imagined, imaged, lost. By Tasha Lizak
05.10-03.11
Official 13th Note

Interested in our contemporary ecology; an hallucinatory entanglement of multiple realms, logics, systems and ideas, Tasha Lizak’s work explores the space where mixed realities and narratives construct a paradigm devoid of definition.
Skullcap is the proliferation of work made during this recent period of extreme banality, and extreme absurdity, coming together as an installation thats neither image nor object, only ever semi-inhabitable, simultaneously definite and obtuse.

Missed Fortune III
By Jamie Watt

20.09 - 05.10 ‘21

Drawing on a darkly comedic and socially conscious ethos, Jamie’s broadly sculptural practice is an exploration of class, cultural tribalism, and the aporia of mental health within Capitalism. He is fascinated by the distortion of historic truth through myth & legend - his work hinges on a dialogue with the past. He uses historic imagery, narratives, and folklore as vehicles to examine the above topics. Informed by discourse on Capitalist Realism, NeoMedievalism, and by combining the iconography of disparate epochs (drawing heavily from his native Scotland), his practice articulates personal and collective anxieties conjured by our contemporary world.

“Part Pop artist, part underground appropriator, Natalie Doyle’s work frequently takes shape in the form of performance and is often multifaceted in nature.

By investigating reoccurring patterns, semiotics and memes, as well as injecting a healthy helping of popular culture, she constantly strives to create works that are bold yet play out with a subtle twist of humour.”

We are very excited to have Greer Pester exhibiting her latest collection of artworks ‘Bless This Mess with Nurture Nature’ inside the 24 Hour Window.

On King Street until 03.03.20.

“The series of transparent cutouts are a collection made by Scottish artist Greer Pester who is based between Mexico City & Glasgow. These stained glass like forms are made with her father's 40 year old collection of gels used to light scenes on film sets during his career as a cameraman. Warming and cooling light to encourage a feeling.

After living in Mexico for the past 4 years, she recognises the high intensity traumas and losses she experienced there including the 2017 earthquake and several deaths of loved ones - have in turn and ironically fuelled much alive feeling and are pretty in tune with the day to day ethos of Mexican culture, living in the present on the fine line between the lights and darks of life. From her experiences of openness and curiosity of these life and death cycles, they are key to presence.

These collaged forms change shape with the light of day and the dark of night, they are alive in their contexts. Greer is interested in the essential states which conjure up our most alive and human feeling and how to return to an instinctive human nurture nature.
She uses symbolism and metaphors to consider the suffering and blossoming of our natural landscapes both in body and terrain.

Land body like human body holds trauma. It’s history is marked across its surface and carved and soaked into its depths, but this trauma can also be essential for it’s transformation and development, from the ashes grows fertile sprouts and action for change. This work explores trauma and intimacy both in humans and the natural landscape. These two environments can often mirror one another in their states : womb fires , forest fires , volcanos , vulvas , bleeding lava and earthblood. We are livid. We are sweating. We are exhilarated .We are sensual. Humans are the only animals who produce tears from joy or grief. They are also one of the best animals at sweating . So these are made in honour of our sweat and tears.”

A House Inside ➱ by Roisin Cairney.
.. “Inspired by my tacky living spaces, otherworldly dog walks to the park misinterpreted awkward conversations, and inspiring day-trips to shopping centres. I collect all the random mush of everyday life and allow it all to organically filter through into my work. my current works are clumsy awkward but natural in form and shape, because of this they juxtaposed to the 4 corners of the white cubes space which they are often found. The sculptures often have a hard straight line as an internal structure often associated with a human-made object from that apply I an organic frame structure on top. I have been using different forms of paper through my current sculptures working with books, drawings, pulp and paper-mache. Paper is transformative in nature and through different forms of manipulation can tell a new story. I'm inspired by paper its connection to nature and forest and its connection to language and story telly it is a powerful medium.”
