Monica Boyle
Organico Bantry is delighted to be hosting an exhibition of paintings by Monica Boyle of Beara, Co Cork, which was opened this eveniong by Hughie O'Donaghue. The exhibition is running from the 3rd to the 31st of July. Her paintings are a facinating combination of inkjet and oil, and were described by Hughie in his introduction as 'embodying and expressing the struggle that is an essential part of the Irish landscape'. Hughie congratulated Monica on her representation of that struggle through her work.

Monica describes this exhibition as a record of a 'journey to the interior' in terms both the physical level - they represent the interior landscape of Heir Island - and the emotional level in terms of depicting her deepening relationship with the island and the people who live there.
