Cycling in the Dark: An Exhibition by Lauren Royall. 12-6pm, Upper Gallery, OPW

Cycling in the Dark is an exhibition incorporating many objects collected / found locally which are used as surface, tool and material.

Delicate forms of pressure push the boundaries of tension in sculptural forms and scrappy, soft materials. The exhibition asks us to reflect on the more subtle violent treatment of objects, humans and animals. How do those build up to bigger ones?

Lauren Royall is an artist and studio holder at The Old Print Works whose work is rooted in abstract painting and sculpture. Their practice is conceptually driven by their experience in sexual violence education and prevention.

The exhibition is free, and there is a small selection of prints available for sale, where 50% of proceeds will go towards The Old Print Works.
