Suburban Shadows by Mary Burke - Toradh Gallery 11th June at 7.00pm

Date Released: 18 May 2009

SUBURBAN SHADOWS

Dublin artist Mary Burke continues her exploration of the world of Suburbia.


This work consists of a series of oil pastels depicting shadows cast on both the interiors and exteriors of suburban houses both day and night. There is an interesting duality that occurs with shadow. Shadow can help to define but also dissolve form. Familiar images can be broken down into abstract planes and patterns and yet still remain recognizable. Something very familiar can begin to appear quite unfamiliar when examined closely.
