The Hunt Museum “Visible Reminders of Invisible Light” March 2019

March 2019 “Visible Reminders of Invisible Light” A group of seventeen invited contemporary artists at The Hunt Museum in Limerick City. Mixed media Finished in beeswax 20 x 20 cm The inspiration for my artwork is the Hunt family itself. The family is featured throughout the museum and reminds me of my own upbringing. My mother, Sarah Roberts, was an avid collector and had a shop on Mallow Street, The Treasure Chest. Our house was always full to over?owing with collections of antiques - toby jugs being a favourite - as well as oil lamps, paintings, willow-pattern plates, clocks, Staffordshire greyhounds, green glass and more. I feel a certain af?nity with the family involved in this amazing collection. The exhibition explores personal responses to ‘Family’ within a contemporary context, primarily using the collections of the Hunt Museum and Limerick Museum as a source of inspiration.
