We are thrilled to announce that our next solo exhibition will feature the work of acclaimed Irish artist Louise Cherry. Titled All That’s Left of You in Me, this captivating collection invites audiences into Cherry’s imaginative and thought-provoking world.
A Wicklow-based artist, Cherry takes an innovative approach to traditional life drawing and the visual language of representation. Her bold and dynamic compositions challenge conventional depictions of the nude in art and contemporary culture, raising questions about its presence in the digital and cyber landscapes that shape modern life. Her faceless, featureless figures—stripped of defining characteristics and embodying an almost androgynous form—challenge the viewer's gaze and interest…
A multi-disciplinary artist, Cherry works across painting, photography, sculpture, performance, and writing. Her work has been showcased both nationally and internationally, with pieces held in public and private collections worldwide. She holds a First-Class Master’s degree in Visual Arts Practice from the Institute of Art, Design and Technology (2009) and a First-Class Honours degree in Photography from the Dublin Institute of Technology (2001).
