Reaction

This year’s August Craft Month Exhibition, ‘Reaction’, opened at Craft NI Gallery, Belfast on August 1st!  The event is a highlight of the much anticipated month-long celebration of craft which takes place across the island of Ireland in August, an exhibition that seeks to celebrate and profile excellence in the NI craft sector.

The exhibition will welcome audiences with exciting work by talented local designer-makers, who have responded to this year’s theme, Reaction. Find out what reactions between materials made it possible for their body of work to come to life – was it a particular technique? Or was the makers’ response found in exploring their own creative process, ‘reacting’ to events and influences in the environment?

The exhibition runs until August 31, 2024.

Exhibiting makers: Anne Butler, Caitlin Murphy, Cara Murphy, Carla Pennie McBride, Celine Traynor, Cora Cummins, Corinne Price, Eleanor Wheeler, Fang Zhao, Hugh Cummins, Irene McBride, Jackie McMaster, Janice Gilmore, Joel Smyth, Karena Ryan, Karl Harron, Kathleen Walsh, Maya Todd, Natasha Rollinson, Pennie Metcalfe, Claire and Karen Gibson from Red Earth Designs, Ruth Osborne, Sarah Cathers, Stuart Cairns and Sue Cathcart.
