"Uncertain" Sins in Dublin
'Uncertain Sins' - irish art by Charlie Whisker - is at the Solomon Gallery, Dublin. Whisker is originally from Northern Ireland but is now based in Dublin. His art often refers to his experience of living through the conflicts in Northern Ireland, in particular his witnessing of the sectarian murder of an 18-year-old neighbour. Many of the still lifes contain motifs such as a half-burnt match, anti-depressant pills and bottles of alcohol, which reflect the trauma and grief of the experiences endured by the community in Northern Ireland.
