The Invisible Objects Exhibition is an exciting new exhibition of sculptures, drawings, stories and animations made during this year’s super cool summer school at the Golden Thread Gallery. All the art in this exhibition has been made by young people, who love art and ideas!
Summer Schoolers have explored art with artists Sara Greavu and Linda Monks with the help of artists Rhiannon Magowan and Claire Lundy. During the week long project each young person had the opportunity to try their hand at many different art forms, and worked towards their very own exhibition launch in the Golden Thread Gallery’s Project Space opening this Saturday the 28th of August 2010.
Summer Schoolers participated in group projects alongside the realisation of their own art work, coming up with all the smashing ideas and exciting new ways of making art. The young artists had a gallery tour and got to talk about their ideas with internationally acclaimed artist Locky Morris and had a visit from Niamh MacNamara, Broadcast Archivist with BBCNI Community Archive and the National Museums Northern Ireland.
We pride ourselves on offering a friendly, open space where everyone is welcome. For those who have never visited the Golden Thread before this is the perfect opportunity to get a flavour of what we do.
On Saturday there will be a small awards ceremony at 1pm, and the audience will have a chance to meet the young artist and ask them about their ideas.
