Resting Pressure - F.E. McWilliam Gallery, Banbridge (5th March - 28th May, 2022)


Resting Pressure is a survey exhibition by Belfast based artist Sharon Kelly. Including work from the late 1980s to the present, Resting Pressure provides an unprecedented opportunity to explore the development of Kelly’s practice over more than three decades. Through processes that include drawing, watercolour, printmaking, sculpture, video and installation, Kelly sensitively explores ideas around resilience, endurance, fragility, motherhood, grief and death and poses what art historian Dr Kate Antosik-Parsons identifies, as the ‘fundamental questions about the experiences of the body in relation to the larger meanings of life’.

Curated by Dr. Riann Coulter at the F.E. McWilliam Gallery.
