A Together In Art Pocket Exhibition curated by Anne Ryan
Art can excite the eye and mind. Art can be uncomfortable and exhilarating. And sometimes, when things are hard – when the mind and heart are racing faster than they should – art can be a place to find respite. These are works from the Gallery's collection that I have turned to in the past months of uncertainty and dislocation. They share a certain stillness, whether found in nature or the arrangement of forms. They have brought me peace and calm. Maybe they will for you too.
