This tour takes place as part of the 2026 Bealtaine Festival\, Ireland’s national festival celebrating the arts and ageing. \n  \nAudio descriptive tours are designed to make art accessible to everyone. In this tour\, Aideen will guide visitors through the exhibition with rich\, detailed verbal descriptions of the works\, bringing the visual world of the show into vivid focus for visitors who are blind\, have low vision\, or are experiencing difficulties with their vision. \n  \nAs well as describing the works themselves\, the tour will offer insight into their artistic and thematic significance\, providing a deeper understanding of Heffernan’s layered and symbol-rich practice. \n  \nAideen Quirke is independent curator and artist from Co Tipperary\, based in Cork City. \n  \nAll welcome | Free admission \n‘𝘄𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗼𝘅𝗹𝗶𝗽𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗻𝗼𝗱𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘃𝗶𝗼𝗹𝗲𝘁 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄𝘀’ 𝗿𝘂𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝘁 𝗚𝗢𝗠𝗔 𝗪𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗱 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝟵 𝗠𝗮𝘆 – 𝟲 𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗲 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 \nAbout Joseph Heffernan: \n  \nJoseph Heffernan is an Irish artist based in Backwater Artist Studios\, Cork. Working across painting\, drawing\, text and assemblage/installation his practice is concerned with identity\, rituals\, performance and how memory is constructed. \n  \nHeffernan’s sculptural work uses found\, antique and reclaimed materials to examine how objects can carry meaning. They are often devotional in nature and question how we chose to assign significance to things in order to construct and poeticise personal narratives. These assemblages and installations provide a theatrical setting for his paintings\, drawings and texts. \n  \nHis current body of work and upcoming exhibition ‘where oxlips and the nodding violet grows’ imagines a speculative narrative dominated by a game referred to as ‘The Ceremony of the Flowers’. While the rules of this game are only alluded to they seem to be an abstract synthesis of poetry\, mathematics and esoteric knowledge that envisage the world as an abstruse place full of elaborate rituals involving obscure signs and symbols. It functions as an intercessor of sorts between the mundanity of the world and the quasi divine. In the process the work asks questions about belief and the things that we chose to put our faith in. \nGOMA website: ‘where oxlips and the nodding violet grows’ | Joseph Heffernan \nJoseph Heffernan website \nJoseph Heffernan Instagram \n  \n  \nSharing & Printing\n Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n Email\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)\n WhatsApp\n \n Print (Opens in new window)\n Print\n Like this:Like Loading… URL:https://waterfordarts.com/event/audio-described-tour-joseph-heffernan-where-oxlips-and-the-nodding-violet-grows/ LOCATION:GOMA\, 6 Lombard St\,\, Waterford\,\, Waterford\, X91 F2XP\, Ireland CATEGORIES:Exhibition,Goma Gallery of Modern Art,Talk ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://waterfordarts.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/‘where-oxlips-and-the-nodding-violet-grows.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Paris:20260528T000000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Paris:20260528T235959 DTSTAMP:20260604T012927 CREATED:20260514T125553Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260519T112825Z UID:41336-1779926400-1780012799@waterfordarts.com SUMMARY:Poetry Day Waterford 2026 DESCRIPTION:The Waxed Lemon presents Poetry Day Waterford 2026 \nA day full of free events across the city. \n \nThe Sound of Poetry\nPoets and musicians perform iconic poems and the music they inspired\n1pm\, Waterford Gallery of Art \nPoetry Workshop\nPoetry Workshop with Lani O’Hanlon\n2-4pm\, Waterford Gallery of Art \nBealtaine Dusk Chorus\nGuest reading by poet Mary Howlett\n6pm\, Carrickpherish Library \nHome: A Poetry Reading\nWith poets Mark Roper\, Lani O’Hanlon and Cliodhna Bhreathnach\n9.30pm\, GOMA \nTullys Open Mic\nA special Poetry Day open mic\n7pm\, Tully’s Bar \nHome at Christchurch\nWayne Power presents an evening of poetry and music\n8pm\, Christchurch Cathedral \nFree Admission to all events. \nKindly supported by the Arts Office of Waterford City & Council \nSharing & Printing\n Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n Email\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)\n WhatsApp\n \n Print (Opens in new window)\n Print\n Like this:Like Loading… URL:https://waterfordarts.com/event/poetry-day-waterford-2026/ CATEGORIES:Event,Goma Gallery of Modern Art,Poetry,Waterford City and County Council,Waterford Gallery of Art,Workshop ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://waterfordarts.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/Untitled-design-2.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Paris:20260523T140000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Paris:20260523T160000 DTSTAMP:20260604T012927 CREATED:20260519T102013Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260519T111750Z UID:41381-1779544800-1779552000@waterfordarts.com SUMMARY:The Poetry Lounge DESCRIPTION:Speak Your Truth\npresents\nThe Poetry Lounge\nHosted by Ger Duffy \nWith Karen Downs-Barton\, Minx (moderated by Ger Duffy)\, Kerrie Hardie\, We Go On (moderated by Colette Colfer)\, and Eoin Deverux\, Gardening Leave (moderated by Cathy Conlon) \nFree Event\nSaturday 23rd May\, 2:00-4:00pm\nWaterford Gallery of Art\, O’Connell Street\, Waterford\nVisit http://www.poetryireland.ie for more details!

While each carries the distinctive marks and gestures of each of the five artists of S/TAC\, the whole work is unified through over printing using colour and stencilled motifs which reference a connecting theme of exposure and masking of internal body organs. The collaborative installation acts as a symbol of shelter\, connectedness and intersection which overtly plays with notions of ‘life on view’\, private versus public\, acts of display and exposure\, domesticity and ‘women’s work’…\nDeveloping this concept\, in The Ties that Bind\, the clothesline can signify a variety of feminist and feminised ideas and is a deep reaching metaphor for the ties that bind families\, communities and women together. Strung together it becomes a symbol of the chaos and intersection of lives and cultures within an imposed vertical grid. The lines can be seen to embody twin notions of shelter/ exposure; concealment/revelation; reality/fiction; conscious/unconscious.\nAccompanying these collaborative works are a selection of pieces by each of the artists which provide some hints and suggestion to the particular significance/resonance to each and how that feeds into and is nourished by the participation and collaboration of a collective.\nCurated by Jenna Whelan.\nAbout the CollectiveThe Shell/ter Artist Collective (S/TAC) evolved organically during the pandemic 2020 and was driven by a desire of the artists to talk about the effects\, both personal and professional\, of a shifting and unpredictable world. In this dynamic space the artists found ways to explore\, enrich and diversify their independent practice while supporting one another. The Collective explores the concept of shelter from emotional\, psychological\, and philosophical perspectives and previous exhibitions include ‘Shelter’ at the National Gallery of Ireland 2023 and ‘The ladder is always there’ in Draiocht in 2023/2024. Shared identity\, common purpose and egalitarian values underpin much of the desire to work as a group\, and the nature of this engagement continues to shift and develop.\nDiana Copperwhite (RHA) is a member of Aosdána and draws particular inspiration from early Irish modernism. Her paintings explore the relationship between colours\, gestures\, figuration\, and representation. She gives structure to the unseen world of atoms and molecules to examine the psychological and spatial interpretation of self. Layering fragmented sources that range from personal memory to science\, media and internet\, Copperwhite’s canvases become worlds in which the real is unreal and this unreality is in a constant state of reforming.\nhttp://www.dianacopperwhite.net\nAllyson Keehan is an Irish visual artist based between Ireland and Scotland. She was awarded PhD in Fine Art from Glasgow School of Art in 2021 titled ‘Painting and Materiality: Three Creative Strategies for Transformation’. Her research is in the expanded field of painting and the use of drapery in art. Looking closely at veiling and artifice\, her practice incorporates drapery and framing to create complex structural experiences of real and imaginary spaces. Drapery has a wealth of history relating to painting and these propositions amplify the experience of viewing and understanding.\nhttp://www.allysonkeehan.ie\n \nNiamh McGuinne‘s practice combines print\, sculpture\, textile\, film and installation. The immersive nature of her background in paper conservation working with historical collections informs this art practice. Conceptually she is interested in the body as the protector\, a shell in which to develop…and how time and growth are marked and interpreted. Her work has an element of the performative\, either as a space or as costume in which to interact\, which present an invitation to participate – physically or imaginatively.\nhttp://www.niamhmcguinne.com\nSharon Murphy is visual artist based between Dublin and Paris whose practice is lens-based incorporating photography\, video\, installation and drawing. Her work investigates the boundaries between the seen / unseen\, fictive / real\, conscious / (sub)liminal. Drawing on a background in theatre and informed by concepts in magic realism and psychoanalysis\, recurring motifs in her work include: theatre curtains; carousels; circus tents\, performative sites; embodied staged spaces. Her works address uncertainty\, the uncanny\, the ‘there / not there’\, linked to an investigation\, quintessential to both photography and performance of what it is the viewer is shown or is seeing.\nhttp://www.sharonmurphy.ie\nGeraldine O’Neill (RHA) is a member of Aosdána and has a particular respect for and understanding of the techniques and visual language used in the history of art. She has long responded to the increasing confrontation with human engagement and relationship with the ecosystem\, in particular the Anthropocene whose traces are now embedded within the geological layers of the Earth’s structure. Playing with incongruities of time and space\, she juxtaposes traditional references with scientific reasoning and contemporary perspective in large-scale and small scale compositions. Her works address protection and shelter from a domestic and environmental viewpoint to emphasise the fragility of life.\nhttp://www.geraldineoneill.ie\nGOMA Gallery of Modern Art\n6 Lombard Street\nWaterford\, Ireland\nT: +353 87 1961923 \nSharing & Printing\n Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n Email\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)\n WhatsApp\n \n Print (Opens in new window)\n Print\n Like this:Like Loading… URL:https://waterfordarts.com/event/the-ties-that-bind-shell-ter-artist-collective-s-tac/ CATEGORIES:Art.,Artist's Gallery,Goma Gallery of Modern Art END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Paris:20240613T190000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Paris:20240613T190000 DTSTAMP:20260604T012927 CREATED:20260514T103741Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260514T103741Z UID:41192-1718305200-1718305200@waterfordarts.com SUMMARY:AUTHOR COLM TÓIBÍN IN CONVERSATION DESCRIPTION:Dungarvan Library.

Her reflective material responses are shaped by personal experiences and the self determination of Arte Povera and D.I.Y. Punk music movements.\nThis exhibition prompts the viewer to consider texture\, colour\, structure\, openings and accidents in the city. Precarious\, ephemeral pseudo-architectural structures and drawings exist in a state of flux; bundled\, propped\, and balanced\, whilst Polaroids act as witness to moments of discovery. Folly | Façadelays the foundation for a deeper academic research project that will create new knowledge in the embodied experience of public spaces and structures\, reimagining ordinary building blocks and rubble to construct alternative orders and meaning.\nCurated by Aideen Quirke. \nSharing & Printing\n Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n Email\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)\n WhatsApp\n \n Print (Opens in new window)\n Print\n Like this:Like Loading… URL:https://waterfordarts.com/event/folly-facade-ciara-rodgers/ CATEGORIES:Art.,Exhibition,Goma Gallery of Modern Art ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://waterfordarts.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/05/folly-facade-banner.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Paris:20240528T183000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Paris:20240528T183000 DTSTAMP:20260604T012927 CREATED:20260514T103741Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260514T103741Z UID:41191-1716921000-1716921000@waterfordarts.com SUMMARY:TUESDAY NIGHT TALKS WITH OLLIE BRESLIN AND KEITH CURRAMS DESCRIPTION:CAPTURING WATERFORD’S STORIES\nArdkeen Library.

Tissue paper can also be added as well as gold leaf.\nYou will incise images into encaustic and add colour to the incisions.\nThe workshop will be led by artist Ger Kennedy\, who will supply all materials with the exception of gold leaf. Please bring images/text that mean something to you.\nGer Kennedy is a Tramore based painter and printmaker. She studied fine art in the UK and Ireland\, and has had several group shows and a solo show.

The official launch will take place at GOMA Waterford on Saturday 14th October from 4–6pm. All are welcome!\nAll Flesh is a new site specific multi-sensory textile installation and video work by Irish artist Gillian O’Shea. Through multi-layered installations sculpture\, colour\, film and sound merge\, transporting us to an uneasy confluence of opposing realities. These created environments invite visitors to experience\, consider and reflect on our ambivalent attitudes to the natural environment.\nThis work is inspired by the artist’s investigations of the often forgotten and unseen intrinsic importance of fungi and lichens in stabilising networks of living relationships. These humble organisms are intrinsically connected to vast networks of life on earth\, including our own. Yet\, to most of us they are inconsequential.\nCoarse\, fleshy organisms intertwine and penetrate the troposphere\, swaddling each vascular network\, protecting the almighty mycelial network. This is the living subterranean seam by which our world is connected\, regardless of and despite our interventions.\n‘Pulse’ is a 4-minute-long video piece\, central to the exhibition. This multi-projection of film immerses the visitor in a dystopian representation of the future. Drawing on the ombre chinois’s tradition of shadow play paper mechanical links create a pulley system\, using the greenhouse as a motif of human intervention. They are inevitably devoured by the very operating system that created them.\nAll Flesh will be exhibited in the Gallery of Modern Art Waterford (GOMA) from 14th October to 25th November 2023. This work will also form the gallery’s submission for the Imagine Festival Waterford which will take place in October 2023.\nFor more details see: www.gomawaterford.ie / 051 582633\nGOMA Gallery of Modern Art\, 6 Lombard Street\, Waterford.

In the summer\, it fills out into a sort of glowing circle that has the look of a very hairy dogs head. This Tree became my start point for drawings during that period of restricted walking. At first\, I used these Drawings and photos in photo etching but for the last year and a half\, I have been working on them through Sculpture and they have now developed into this small forest.\nCast wax\, and Bronze\, carved\, wood\, welded mild steel\, Pasted Gold leaf. Glued screwed and bolted bits and pieces form the basis of most of the Sculpture pieces. The prints are Photo Etching and Spit Bite\, on Hahnemuhle Natural White.\nSat 23rd Sep – Sat 18th Nov 2023. 11am-5.30pm\nGarter Lane Arts Centre\, 22a O’Connell Street Waterford.\ntel :0035351855038 E.Mail: ticket@garterlane.ie \nSpider Tree by Ben Reilly \n \nSharing & Printing\n Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n Email\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)\n WhatsApp\n \n Print (Opens in new window)\n Print\n Like this:Like Loading… URL:https://waterfordarts.com/event/spider-tree-by-ben-reilly/ CATEGORIES:Art.,Exhibition,Garter Lane ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://waterfordarts.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/Ben-Reilly-tile-451x650-1.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Europe/Paris:20230922T190000 DTEND;TZID=Europe/Paris:20230922T200000 DTSTAMP:20260604T012927 CREATED:20260514T103841Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260514T103841Z UID:41212-1695409200-1695412800@waterfordarts.com SUMMARY:CULTURE NIGHT DESCRIPTION:Waterford Gallery of Art \nJoin author and illustrator Sarah Bowie at the Waterford Gallery of Art to learn some simple and fun techniques to help enhance personality and character development in your drawings.
