An exhibition by

Opening reception
Thursday 3 September 7pm

POST is an exhibition based on the long running visual dialogue between two artists, Berlin based Declan Rooney and cork Based Stuart Coughlan.
This dialogue, conducted through the traditional postal system reflects both artists interest in mark making, collecting ephemera, ritual, repetition and personal mythologies. With the widespread use of electronic media, communication has become more immediate and sanitized. The artists reflect on the comparative slowness of the traditional mail system and the tactile qualities of paper, card and tape as it passes through hands, modes of transportation and crosses land and sea.
