Exhibition dates: 5 June–31 August 2025
Flax is delighted to present ‘All in Colour’, an exhibition of new paintings by Louise French at Shankill Road Library. This is the eleventh of Flax Art Studios’ annual exhibitions in partnership with the library – an opportunity for an artist to present their work in a community setting.
‘All in Colour’ is a new series of paintings made on surfaces with pre-existing imagery. Through experimentation with materials and processes, the paintings explore colour and form. Referring to still life and domestic representations of nature, the exhibition reflects on the act of painting itself.
Louise French completed a Bachelor of Fine Art at the National Art School, Australia, 2022. In March 2023 she joined Flax Art Studios (Belfast) Emerging Artist Programme. She has had solo exhibitions at Threshold Gallery, Belfast, and Ards Art Centre, Newtownards. Her work has been shown in group exhibitions including at RuptureXIBIT (London), R-Space (Lisburn), Arcade Studios and Catalyst, Belfast. In 2025 she was granted Arts Council of Northern Ireland Project Funding for Individual Artists.
