Mark Joyce

Green on red gallery, Dublin

'Energy is eternal delight'
William Blake

The reoccurring leitmotif of Mark Joyce's new paintings is in the form of an aperture. Converging and diverging colours radiate from the edge of the picture to an unreachable space beyond. These paintings have developed from a recent period spent in Reykjavik. There is a crystalline, geological quality in these new works. These are paintings of the 'facets' or faces of nature. As always Joyce's paintings revolve around the basic challenge of physically painting the light.

Mark Joyce was born in Dublin Ireland in 1966. He studied painting at the National College of Art and Design, Dublin and the Royal College of Art, London. He has exhibited in most of the major selected survey exhibitions in Ireland and the UK and has had Solo Exhibitions in Ireland, UK and the USA. His work is in Collections of the Irish Museum of Modern Art, and the Arts Council of Ireland.

The next exhibition at Green On Red Gallery is The Dark End of the Street, a solo exhibition of new works by Nigel Rolfe, opening on 31 May. For further information please contact Jerome O Drisceoil or Mary Caffrey at T: +353 16713414 or E: info@greenonredgallery.com
