Irish artist Isabel Nolan presents a new series of paintings and a large tapestry unveiled for the first time.

The acts of reading, drawing, and writing are indispensable processes for Nolan, to reflect on both the wider world and on herself, and these basic activities form the basis of the works in this exhibition. The paintings in 499 seconds are filled with vivid colour and fluid forms to create ethereal yet joyous canvases complete with movement and energy.

For the Renzo Piano Pavilion, Nahas has fi lled the walls with four large-scale canvases from his new series « Constellation ». The visitor becomes immediately absorbed in the dance of these spiral compositions that unfold like musical scores, expressing joy, and drawing audiences into the cosmos.

Concurrently on show in the Old Wine Storehouse, Nahas will display a more personal series of work linked to his origins in Lebanon. Featuring olive trees, palm trees and cedars, which are critical to the history, culture and ecology of his homeland, the works rise up to form a gallery of botanical portraits.
