Exhibition Presence & Absence II – Geraldine Jackman

This work is inspired by past histories of people and places, and incorporates reclaimed materials and found or discarded objects, including photographs. Geraldine’s work often constitutes a reconstruction of the objects and materials used in her practice reference and reflects past histories. Presence of these histories is felt all the more strongly through their absence. These histories are revitalized and re-presented in the present, while also referencing their absence. It is this aspect that gives her work its subjectivity.

Geraldine Jackman graduated from the Limerick School of Art and Design with an Honours BA Degree in Fine Art Painting in June 2010. Her recent solo exhibitions have included the South Tipperary Arts Centre, Clonmel, January 2011, Birr Theatre and Arts Centre, September 2011 and Tipperary Excel in January 2012.

Her work has been selected to participate in the exhibition Irish Wave 2012 in Beijing China. She lives in Golden, Co. Tipperary and has work in private collections in Ireland, France Australia and England. Exhibition ends Thursday 17 May
