Mary Clarke: Melting, Moving, Mesmerising No. 1 | Mary Clarke: Melting, Moving, Mesmerising | Wednesday 26 March – Wednesday 28 May 2025 | Toradh2 Gallery | Image: Mary Clarke: Melting, Moving, Mesmerising No. 1 | photographic image, but one that blends a view down the steps of an escalator with a passage into a forest; the steps in front of us become overgrown with moss as they descend; over the escalator and descending with it is what at first glance seems to be a glass tunnel sheltering us from the outside, but in fact it is again a blending of the manufactured and the natural as it is farther from us; it’s a sunny day in the – largely conifer – forest

This latest exhibition of new work by Navan based artist Mary Clarke explores the themes of climate change and the environment. Mary’s collection of vibrant, layered and abstracted images confronts the viewer, both subtly and directly, in an effort to provoke a reaction. Her work engages with the audience’s imagination, to stimulate conversation, in the hope of igniting positive action.

Presented by Meath County Council Arts Office, this collection of thought-provoking photographic prints, collage and works on paper runs until 28 May 2025.
