Ingrid Murphy @ oriel Q - queens hall gallery, narberth

Ingrid Murphy has created a stunning body of work that deals with the notion of space from the architectural to the intimate.

The use of gold as a reflective surface in some of the pieces creates a fabulous effect. Objects placed within these paper-thin box structures take on a significance that lead us to speculate on their symbolism. The excitement and wonder of the physical attributes of the medium take us into the realms of alchemy and magic.

The struggle to create such technically difficult pieces is rewarded by the sheer joy of the finished object which takes on an iconic presence.

Ingrid is from County Cork, Ireland and is Head of the Ceramic Department at West Wales School of Art and Design in Carmarthen. This exhibition shows what a talented artist she is and we can expect her to become internationally renowned.

The exhibition is open 10am-5pm daily.
