Economic wasteland now a blank canvas

Ireland’s blighted socio-economic landscape is interpreted by four artists in a fascinating new exhibition, says Carl Dixon

AT the CIT Wandesford Quay Gallery in Cork from Feb 11 to Mar 1, drawnOVERdrawn is a new exhibition of drawings curated by James L Hayes.

The show features work by Chicory Miles, Malcom McClay, Rian Kerrane and Eric Waldemar, all of whom are based in America. This striking, coherent exhibition examines Ireland’s physical and socio-economic ‘landscape’ through the eyes of four different artists.
