Striking exhibition at 126


Shills, an exhibition by Cork artist Pádraig Spillane will open this Friday at 7pm in the city’s 126 Gallery. It is part of an ongoing collaboration between Galway’s Engage Art Studios and Tactic Studios, Cork.
Pádraig Spillane, who has a Masters in Fine Art from Cork’s Crawford Gallery, has exhibited widely, both in Ireland and internationally.
His latest show, Shills, consists of new work which sees him examine the body, desire and sensation by using photography, sculpture, collage and décollage. The show features an accompanying text by Sarah Hayden, a lecturer in 20th and 21st Century American Literature and Culture at the University of Southampton.
Shills runs until Sunday, January 24 at 126 on Flood Street. The artist-run gallery is open Monday to Saturday from 12pm-6pm daily and all are welcome.
