A twenty five foot cathedral constructed from over 5000 empty baked bean tin cans takes pride of place at an exhibition by Patrick O’Reilly at the Oliver Sears Gallery, Molesworth St., Dublin. “Six Impossible things before Breakfast” is the title of the bronze and metal objects exhibition. It is borrowed from a famous passage in Alice in Wonderland. Kilkenny born O’Reilly has his main studio in Drumcondra’s St. Alphonsus Church.
This show demonstrates unusual versatility in multiple media. The exhibition runs until November 20.
