The Visual Voice Art Gallery has turned into a room-sized travel-log. Artists Kristy Boisvert and Samantha Scafidi exhibit a collection of paintings, sketches, and photographs created during their recent trip to Ireland in their exhibition titled Sincerely, Ireland.
The artwork on display varies so much in style, medium and format, that you get the impression this is a group show of seven artists. My favourite paintings are the long, horizontal panoramas of the steep Cliffs of Moher, they capture Ireland’s Tolkienesque landscape perfectly. The whole gallery has been painted green for the occasion, and artists Scafidi and Boisvert promise jam sandwiches for the vernissage, since this is pretty much all they ate during their trip. Erin guh brawk.
