The Wild Thought
Now until 24 February, The Lido Stores in Ethelbert Terrace, Cliftonville, open Wednesday-Sunday 11am-5pm.
Original contemporary art by 48 shortlisted artists, including works by Robin Dixon, Paul Hazelton, Sadie Hennessy, Catherine Lette and Jim McClean.
Gallery owner Kristen Healy, herself an artist, has curated the exhibition following submissions from dozens of artists across the United Kingdom and Ireland.
“We’ve kept The Wild Thought free to enter, with a short time to apply to keep the exhibition fun and exciting”, said Healy. “The quality of entries has been fantastic. Our exhibiting artists have submitted some poignant, erotic and sometimes amusing mediations on the themes of love, lust, heartbreak and betrayal.”
I like Kellie Hogben’s work. What I call proper art!
