Students from St Brigid’s Secondary School host an art exhibition at Killarney Department of Tourism, Culture, Arts, Gaeltacht and Media on New Road.

'Personal Reflections' is an exhibition by Transition and fifth year students at the school.

This Exhibition is a collaboration of two projects, 'Artist in Schools' funded by a Kerry Arts Council, and 'Creative Engagement' funded by NAPD.

The projects were delivered by Artist and Art Director of the Art House, Tracy Sexton, and supported by Art Teachers Alice Quilter and Fiona Archibald.

Both Projects aimed to enhance students' art experience by developing their artistic skills, creativity, and personal expression through the process of drawing and painting.

“'Personal Reflections' offers a captivating exploration into the intertwining realms of Portraiture, Still Life and Personal Identity. Through self-portraits and objects, this exhibition delves into the complexities of how individuals perceive themselves and how they are perceived by others. Each painting reveals a personal narrative, inviting viewers to reflect on their own identity and the identities of those around them. From the striking gaze of a portrait to the quiet elegance of a still life, each piece serves as a mirror, inviting expression, introspection, and connection,” said Jer Lyons Acting PR Coordinator at St Brigid's.

The exhibition will launch on May 8 at 7.00 pm and will continue until May 24.
