Hamilton Gallery is delighted to host an exhibition of new works by Jane O’Malley, opening on Thursday June 2nd at 8pm. John F. Deane, author & poet, will perform the opening ceremony.

Jane O’Malley was born in Montreal. In 1973 she married artist Tony O’Malley and lived in St. Ives, Cornwall, until 1990, when they then moved permanently to Ireland. On working holidays they travelled to the Isles of Scilly, the Bahamas, and the Canary Islands. Inspiration for her work comes from these landscapes, and the objects she has collected on her travels: native jugs and vases, a carved spoon, fruit from the garden. These are then distilled and arranged, giving them a simple presence and the weight of accumulated memory.
