About Liadin Cooke: Overlay – Sculpture and Drawings

When looking at Cooke's work, you find yourself peering closely, your head brought close to the detailed surface of an object or the delicate wash of a drawing

- Clare Lilley, YSP

In this Bothy Gallery exhibition, Irish artist Liadin Cooke explored themes of ornamentation, place, and potent detail through a collection of sculptures and drawings.

    Mikayel Ohanjanyan: Diario

    Diario is a physical expression of the many connections that humans make with one another over the course of a lifetime, whether fleeting associations or enduring and intimate bonds. Ohanjanyan draws on a deep interest in our individuality and what we share of ourselves through our relationships with others, inspired by how the journey of our lives is shaped from beginning to end.

    Jaume Plensa: Wilsis

    Wilsis appears to be deep in thought or dreaming. Her eyes are closed and she is inward-looking and self-contained, remote from the present moment and the beauty of the surrounding scenery. Although monumental in size at over 7 metres high, this sculpture depicts a normal girl, rather than immortalising a traditionally extraordinary or powerful person.
