Iomramh

On St. Patrick's Day, Espronceda presents Iomramh, an exhibition about the work of three contemporary Irish artists (Richard Hearns, Johnny Fitzsimons and Mark Redden). Iomramh is a type of ancient Irish tale about a hero's journeys in the sea to the beyond. They were written in the Christian era and retain elements of Irish mythology.

Hearns, Fitzsimons and Redden's relationship was forged in 2006 during a residency in a remote studio in Roscommon, Ireland, where they worked almost monastically: quiet living and spending long hours in their studies to lay the groundwork for their future practices. His work ranges from abstraction to figuration, and is both allegorical and intuitive.
