Danny Foley: Rising star of the Cork art world

Emerging artist Danny Foley has launched his solo exhibition, "Beyond Eye Sea," at the Lavit Gallery in Cork after winning the prestigious Cork Arts Society Student of the Year Award. The exhibition features an immersive installation comprising a stop-motion animation, paintings, and large-scale paper collages that explore themes of shapeshifting and fluid artistic processes. Foley, a graduate of the Crawford College of Art & Design, developed the work during a residency at the Backwater Artists Group, utilizing a technique of layering water-based materials to create evolving visual narratives.
