In collaboration with the University of Galway Art Gallery and Project RARE, I am really excited to announce an upcoming session of the Lexicon of Wonder Collage Workshop as part of the wide ‘Lexicon of Wonder' project.

This project features an exhibition, workshops, discussions and an artist talk is inspired by recent research into the emotions of Wonder & Awe and into the arts as a deep technology for evoking these states in both practitioner and audience.

Here is a little bit about the Lexicon of Wonder Collage Workshop:
This 2 hour workshop at the University of Galway with artist Anthony D Kelly will begin with a short guided meditation or visualization, inviting participants to reconnect with personal memories and experiences of wonder and awe. From this reflective starting point, Anthony will lead a hands-on collage session using carefully selected materials, offering gentle guidance on technique and composition as participants develop their work toward a finished piece.

This event is part of "The Lexicon of Wonder" Exhibition which is still on view for an extended run at both the University of Galway Art Gallery and Staff Club.

Catch it while you can!

About the artist:
Anthony D. Kelly is a visual artist, writer, and integrative psychotherapist based in Castlebar, County Mayo. He works mainly with Collage and Assemblage techniques to create hopeful, humorous, and sometimes unnerving and deeply satirical imagery.

An active and experienced member of the Irish collage community, he founded the Connacht Collage Collective in 2024, the first collective of its kind in Ireland. He was selected as the Kolaj Institute World Collage Day Artist for 2023. His work has been exhibited across Ireland, throughout Europe, and in the United States.
