Throughout this intimate survey of the imaginative and varied aspects of David Begley's new works, a sense of wonder pervades. 

Begley’s paintings need time and space to be viewed. A constant motif is light, how light seeks to be reflected, be that in the dramatic nocturnal works or the expansive and yet - tiny - landscapes. When he paints light we often find ourselves also looking at water, and perhaps wondering which is which. At the root of many of these works is an inquisitive and often playful mind, contemplating the bigger questions: time, love, death, afterlife, fate.

A catalogue with an essay by the art historian, critic and lecturer at Trinity College Dublin Dr Brenda Moore-McCann is now available at the gallery.
