Space 1 – re-invents an existing space
Space 2 – explores the representation of narratives
Space 3 – reacts and extends the perimeter of the exhibition
Space 4 – focuses primarily on display and presentation

16.4.1 spans 4 indoor and outdoor spaces within the PLANE / SITE Galleries in a situation-specific collective.

Fionnuala Mahon and Sharon Murphy take on the dual roles of curator and artist. The selected artists have been encouraged to continue working in their usual disciplines and as a result of group meetings along with an online blog, natural groupings of artist practices have emerged. These groupings are presented within each of the spaces in the gallery which include site specific installations that re-invent the gallery space. There are a wide variety of disciplines ranging from illustration, multimedia, painting to textiles.

Participating artists: Mark Beatty, Ella Burke, Claudia Boese, Ruth Doorley, Carol Freeman, Orla Gargan, Nicholas Grey, Elaine Hurley, Kenneth Lambert, Victoria Macarthur, Conor Mahon, Fionnuala Mahon, Elaine McCague, Elaine McHugh, Sharon Murphy and Nicky Teegan.

A special performance was held on the opening night, devised by artists Meabh Redmond and Niamh Murphy.

Preview: 4 December, 6 – 8pm. Continues until 20 December 2009
