The Ballinglen Gallery

Until Feb 10: Ceramic Poem and the Mixing Bowl Sinead Aldridge,
Con Lynch, and Tony Partridge. A potter, a painter, and a philosopher have created hand-painted bowls and a philosophical text related to “real” and “imagined” landscapes, revealing our natural world in paint,
on clay, and in the form of a bowl. Feb 21-Mar 17: Land-mark - Comhartha Talún, Deirdre Kelly, and Kaitlin Zorah McDonough. Opening: Fri, Feb 21, 5-7 pm. Works that show how place informs the artists' work, with this magical location crystallised into the works, coming and returning to place, to shared identity, to past and future connections. From Mar 22:
Linked Mary O'Connor. A series of new paintings and sculpture pieces exploring connections between our land, time, and space
