Tendrils
Nina Canell
Published on the occasion of the exhibition Tendrils by Nina Canell at the Douglas Hyde Gallery, September-November 2012.
Nina Canell's art might be described as a kind of modern alchemy, as much of it is about transformation and a search for deeper, more unified, beauty; her experimental artistic practice is characterised by poetry, whimsy, and humour, but most of all it is about trying to imagine and articulate what is commonly beyond our sight. Material things are subjected to elusive or capricious operations that change or affect them; sometimes they remain separate but entangled, but just as often they dissolve into one other. The work in this book is about air, its stuff and substance, as well as all that moves in it, such as waves, particles, sounds, and seeds.
