Evening apparitions

The young fronds of ferns are a constant favourite of mine. This year I expressed my awe in the form of a continuous line sketch turned into #embroidery

Congratulations once again to Helen Cammock who has been nominated for the Turner Prize 2019. We are delighted to extend ‘The Long Note’ until 26 May 2019 to give visitors the opportunity to see the work. ‘The Long Note’ was commissioned by Mary Cremin, Director @derryvoid and was first shown in Void, Derry in 2018. One of the best known prizes for the visual arts in the world, the Turner Prize aims to promote public debate around new developments in contemporary British art. An exhibition of work by the four shortlisted artists will be held from 28 September 2019 to 12 January 2020 at Turner Contemporary in Margate. ‘The Long Note’ is a partial move towards redressing the lack of the female voice within the historical narrative, and to recognise the need to highlight the centrality of women in what was a pivotal moment in Derry and Ireland’s history. Also included in the exhibition is ‘Shouting with Whispers’ (2017), a group of large screen-prints made up of hand-mixed solid colour block with text, offering a contemplative and powerful interplay with the film and reading resources provided. Each print quotes conversations with friends, as well as questions or statements form activists and philosophers both contemporary and historical. The Reading Room offers a space to delve deeper into the research material selected by the artist to expand and complement the conversations and topics raised in ‘The Long Note’ and related programming.

A closing event on Sat 25 May, ‘Women, Politics & Civil Rights Today’ will mark the final weekend. This discussion brings together an esteemed panel of practitioners whose work remembers the personnel and political struggles of pioneering women in social, political and cultural life across Ireland. A screening of ‘Maeve’, 1981, by feminist film-maker Pat Murphy, takes place after the discussion. Find more information on this event here: https://imma.ie/whats-on/discussion-and-screening/
