Retracing Nature opens tomorrow at Make Hauser & Wirth Somerset and features new work by myself and Adam Buick. For this exhibition I produced a new series of vessels and utensils drawing upon the landscape of North Down and Donegal through collected materials and the visual marks of the landscape, which had also appeared within my landscape drawings. The opening reception is tomorrow evening 6-8 pm, the exhibition continues Saturday 9th of February until Saturday the 30th of March. Made with the support of the Arts Council of Northern Ireland. @make_hwsomerset @atdbuick #makehauser&wirth # Hauser&wirth #contemporarycraft #contemporarymetalwork #contemporarysilversmith #vessel #flatware #poetics #visuallanguage #landscape #sculpturalobjects #lines #landscapelines #landscapecaptures #sculptural #metalwork #interiors #irishlandscape #contemporaryirishart #stuartcairns #artist #maker #smith #exhibition #somerset #artworks #sculpture #silversmith https://www.instagram.com/p/Btlb7sHl6yI/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jj604l09fbx5
