Table Turning is a solo exhibition by Susan MacWilliam. The exhibition focuses on methods of manual making and draws upon the three decades of her work amongst the experts and archives of psychic research.

Several motifs underpin this exhibition: books, hands, and visual references to the act of reading. The idiosyncratic interior of Ormston House provided a catalyst for the creation of new sculptural elements which feature here.

The exhibition title refers to a practice that was widespread in the séance rooms of the mid-to-late-nineteenth century and frequently held up as evidence of psychic phenomenon. Whether through spiritual influence or subterfuge, objects were made to move in ways that contradicted the laws of physics.

Table Turning is supported by The Arts Council of Ireland and Limerick Arts Office.
