Artist Breakfast: Gemma Gallagher | Avid Gallery
(A second event has been added here - https://luma.com/0mck3bhx)
Join us for a moderated conversation and breakfast at Avid Gallery with artist Gemma Gallagher as she explores the concepts and stories behind her new Solo Exhibition - RESONANCE.
We will begin with a private tour of the exhibition, where the artist will walk guests through the show and share the story behind each painting: the experiences and emotions that inspired it, and the poets, philosophers and mystics whose words are layered into the canvas - from Rumi and Lao Tzu to Marcus Aurelius, the Upanishads and Celtic philosophy.
Guests will then enjoy a sit down breakfast with Gemma Gallagher, and Avid Gallery manager and curator Alexandra, for Q&A session, and open conversation with the guests.
