Art display in United House

Six recent works from Italian artist Irma Irsara are being showcased in the United House foyer, thanks to Ailbhe Phelan and Mark Nolan from Busworks resident Decoder.

The paper-pulp artist held a private showing on August 17th, in which members of the public were invited to come along and ask her questions about the paintings. 

Irsara says her pieces are inspired by the breathing spaces of a city – whether it is a favourite corner of the street with shrubs and sprawling undergrowth, or even the sense of enjoyment of walking through a local park.

“Bright colours are used to create space and energy, and each piece is left unframed to allow it to integrate with the surroundings and breathe.” 

“The representation of unity between city-life and the natural world makes these fantastic works ideally suited to the Busworks 
surroundings,” she said.

View the paintings in the United House foyer before the end of September.
