🔨Introducing our most recent Co-Director and resident Brummie…Niamh ! 🔨

Niamh Birch is a multi-disciplinary artist from the West Midlands. Her practice interrogates the collision of queer and working-class cultures within industrial spaces, engaging themes of archive, identity, and legacy. Growing up in a small mining town outside Birmingham, Birch was shaped by a landscape marked by the remnants of industrial collapse. This environment continues to inform her interest in how histories of labour are preserved and where value is placed once industrial sites and communities are rendered obsolete.

⛓️

Since relocating to Belfast, Niamh has devoted her time to digging through the Catalyst archive, reimagining the past in the present, curating an exciting array of events.

In this workshop, participants learned how to make crosses, dolls, and candles using rushes. Aoife de Bhál taught us all about the folklore, mythology, and rituals associated with the goddess Bríd/Saint Bridget. As well as the rhythms of the Celtic calendar, and the relationship between the Irish language and the natural world.

A huge thank you to the wonderful Aoife, who crafted a beautiful weekend, and a special thanks to those who came along!

Part 1.

We celebrated the first new shoots of the Spring with a bilingual (Irish/English) guided walk through the Colin Glen Forest with Aoife de Bhál. It was a chance to practice cúplá focal in a relaxed environment, and tap into the rhythm of the seasons. Participants joined us to spot mushrooms, sample wild teas, and gather rushes together. All gathered materials were used for traditional crafts in the second workshop.

A huge thank you to the wonderful Aoife, who crafted a beautiful weekend, and a special thanks to those who came along!

Beocht an earraigh

Part 1.

We celebrated the first new shoots of the Spring with a bilingual (Irish/English) guided walk through the Colin Glen Forest with Aoife de Bhál. It was a chance to practice cúplá focal in a relaxed environment, and tap into the rhythm of the seasons. Participants joined us to spot mushrooms, sample wild teas, and gather rushes together. All gathered materials were used for traditional crafts in the second workshop.

A huge thank you to the wonderful Aoife, who crafted a beautiful weekend, and a special thanks to those who came along!

🪾🍂Ruaille Buaille🍂🪾

2nd April - 30th April

💛We are beyond excited to showcase the work of Siofra Minnis, recipient of the 25/26 Graduate Award 💛

Siofra Minnis is a Belfast-based multidisciplinary artist, currently based at Queen Street Studios. Her practice explores archival systems, materiality, and the colonial legacies embedded in structures of display. With a focus on land, conflict, and identity in Ireland.

This exhibition presents a film featuring masked figures wearing hand-cast beeswax masks, alongside the costumes and props used in its production. Installed in the style of a museum storehouse, these elements are reframed as artefacts within a speculative archive. The exhibition aims to interrogate systems of display, the ethics of collecting, and the instability of identity, using folkloric characters to reimagine cultural narrators across time.

The exhibition is kindly funded by Ulster University.

Join us next week for Late Night Art, 6-9pm to celebrate the opening. 🌬️

Guarda le Storie di Instagram in Segreto

Il Visualizzatore Storie Instagram è uno strumento facile da usare che ti permette di guardare e salvare le storie, video, foto o IGTV di Instagram in modo segreto. Con questo servizio puoi scaricare contenuti e goderteli offline ogni volta che vuoi. Se trovi qualcosa di interessante su Instagram che vorresti rivedere più tardi o vuoi vedere le storie restando anonimo, il nostro Visualizzatore è perfetto per te. Anonstories offre una soluzione eccellente per mantenere la tua identità nascosta. Instagram ha lanciato per la prima volta la funzionalità Storie nell'agosto 2023, che è stata rapidamente adottata da altre piattaforme per il suo formato coinvolgente e tempestivo. Le storie permettono agli utenti di condividere aggiornamenti rapidi, che siano foto, video o selfie, arricchiti con testo, emoji o filtri, e sono visibili per solo 24 ore. Questo limite di tempo crea un forte coinvolgimento rispetto ai post normali. Oggi, le storie sono uno dei modi più popolari per connettersi e comunicare sui social media. Tuttavia, quando guardi una storia, il creatore può vedere il tuo nome nella loro lista di visualizzatori, il che potrebbe essere un problema per la privacy. E se desiderassi navigare tra le storie senza essere notato? Ecco dove Anonstories diventa utile. Ti consente di guardare contenuti pubblici su Instagram senza rivelare la tua identità. Basta inserire il nome utente del profilo che ti interessa e lo strumento mostrerà le sue ultime storie. Funzionalità del Visualizzatore Anonstories: - Navigazione Anonima: Guarda le storie senza apparire nella lista di visualizzazione. - Nessun Account Necessario: Visualizza contenuti pubblici senza registrarti su Instagram. - Download dei Contenuti: Salva qualsiasi contenuto delle storie direttamente sul tuo dispositivo per un uso offline. - Guarda i Punti Salienti: Accedi ai punti salienti di Instagram, anche oltre la finestra di 24 ore. - Monitoraggio dei Repost: Tieni traccia dei repost o dei livelli di interazione nelle storie per i profili personali. Limitazioni: - Questo strumento funziona solo con account pubblici; gli account privati restano inaccessibili. Vantaggi: - Privacy: Guarda qualsiasi contenuto su Instagram senza essere notato. - Semplice e Facile: Nessuna installazione di app o registrazione richiesta. - Strumenti Esclusivi: Scarica e gestisci contenuti in modi che Instagram non offre.
