Kerlin show a major endorsement for Spillane

Pádraig Spillane is a young artist from Cork whose work is currently showing at the prestigious Kerlin Gallery, Dublin as part of their ‘Fortnight Features Presents II’.

The gallery was drawn to Spillane through his treatment of photographic images as sculptural objects.

“Sometimes I do traditional sculpture,” says Spillane. “But the work I am showing at the Kerlin is a series of photographic objects — these are photographs that I am presenting in a non-traditional way. They are framed but borderless, and I have placed them on the ground. Some are placed in corners to make an interesting activation of space.”
