Solstice are delighted to announce the appointment of Aoife Flynn as this year’s

Visual Art Curator

The exhibition will take as its starting point the intersection between art and architecture, artists’ utilisation of vacant spaces and a reimagining of city centre space in our current economic climate. This climate, as in previous recessions, has witnessed a turn in artistic practice. Once vacant spaces are being transformed into gallery spaces, used as artist’s studios and utilised for artistic interventions. This project will also use a large unoccupied space in the centre of Cork city and will feature a central exhibition curated by Aoife Flynn accompanied by a series of performances, talks and workshops. As a common thread, all the works consider ideas of architecture, perception, place and space.
