Well, well, well is artist Edith Karlson’s first solo exhibition in Ireland, featuring an ambitious new body of work commissioned for Gallery 1. One of the most compelling sculptural voices working in Europe today, Karlson represented Estonia at the 60th International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia in 2024, to widespread acclaim.

Acknowledging the crucial role artists play in influencing and shaping each other, The Artist’s Eye series asks those exhibiting in Gallery 1 to invite an artist of influence to present work in Gallery 2. In this instalment, Karlson has invited artist Olivia Normile who works across installation, sculpture, and moving image to explore transformation, communication, and perception.
