Incantations

The story

TØN Gallery is pleased to present INCANTATIONS, a solo exhibition by Aisling Conroy. In this new body of work, Conroy delves into the metaphysical realm guided by the themes of sound, vibration and cymatics. Working with paint, print, installation, experimental film and sound, Conroy’s multifaceted work invites its audience on a journey beyond the visible world, exploring the unseen forces that shape our reality. “Throughout my practice I explore the idea of intention, repetition and reincarnation, drawing on influences from mystical and visionary art as well as sound and cymatics. My work combines texture, colour and movement to create a heightened sense of introspection on the nature of existence. I create abstractions of the subconscious by using repeated motifs, shapes, colour and form in a very visceral way and always with an interest in spirituality and connecting to a higher consciousness”.
