South East Technological University, School of Art and Design, Wexford
BA (Hons) Art Degree Exhibition
Friday 12th May – Wednesday 31st May 2023
Exhibition Opening: Thursday 11th May at 6pm, at Wexford Arts Centre
Wexford Arts Centre in partnership with the South East Technological University, Wexford are proud to present the annual B.A. (Hons) Fine Art Degree exhibition entitled YOLK at our galleries, at Wexford Arts Centre, Cornmarket, Ferrybank South. The exhibition will open on Thursday 11 May at 6pm with light refreshments provided by The Red Door Café, and all are welcome to attend.
YOLK includes work from nine students who explore engaging arts processes,social and environmental issues, the passing of time, and expression. The work considers aspects of the human condition and personal representation. The students present their achievements and share their work through this group exhibition running from Friday 12th May to Wednesday 31st May.
The work is multidisciplinary incorporating traditional materials and contemporary digital technologies. It includes video, photography, installation, sculpture and painting, carefully presented to offer the viewer the opportunity to engage and interact with the processes and concepts adopted by these emerging artists.
YOLK is the culmination of work produced individually and collectively over four years and features work by Ilaria Berardi, Clara Cleere, Chloe Fortune, Dermot Hatton, Cathal Looby, Seamus Lynch, Colette O’Byrne, Ellen O’Donnell and Nikoleta Slusarz. Each artist has produced a body of work that expresses their vision, their place in the world and, most importantly of all, they each examine in their own way, the role art plays in processing and enhancing our lives today.
South East Technological University, School of Art and Design, delivers an inquiring and testing space for students to learn, create, make and develop over four years. This learning and progressive testing of creativity has been integral to students who are seeking to reflect, engage and represent our cultural understanding of societies experiences.
Join us in celebrating the works by these emerging artists as they begin their journey as professionals.
YOLK will run at Wexford Arts Centre in the lower and upper galleries and mezzanine space from the 12th May. We are delighted to host the graduate exhibition once again at Wexford Arts Centre as our access renovations are now complete and we look forward to welcoming all members of the community to our galleries.
OPENING HOURS: Tuesday – Friday, 10am – 5pm, Saturday, 10am – 4pm.
