Show notes

Sample-Studios Graduate Studio Resident Kayleigh Maimaran discusses her new solo exhibition and shares insights around sustaining her practice after college with Graduate Curatorial Resident Kate McSharry. ‘Beyond Liminal’ is presented by Sample-Studios in The Lord Mayor’s Pavilion on from April 28th - May 21st 2022. Open daily: Wednesday to Saturday, 11am-4pm.

‘Beyond Liminal’ explores a luminous psychological space through an immersive light landscape, where the viewer is encouraged to engage with their own mind space, and move into a transcendent place far off from our fast-paced everyday environment.

On graduating from Crawford College of Art and Design in 2021 with a BA in Fine Art, she received the Graduate Studio Residency Award from Sample-Studios and The Arts Council Artist Bursary Award. Kayleigh’s current practice visualises psychological space with an aim to immerse the viewer within the surrounding environment. Her work ‘Under the Surface’ has been selected for multiple film festivals. Upcoming exhibitions include K-Fest in Killorglin, Kerry.
