More Information
Jersey-based octogenarian Kay Le Seelleur Ara is a prolific painter whose unique style is made all the more interesting by her inventive titling that often forms part of the picture. Shirley MacWilliam will explore the titles of Kay Le Seelleur Ara’s images taking us on a riotous journey where words and pictures jostle each other into submission, insurrection and hilarity.
Shirley MacWilliam is an artist, writer and lecturer at Belfast School of Art. She writes about a number of contemporary women artists, including in 2023 an essay on Kay: The Interesting Paintings, Drawings, Life and Thoughts of Kay Le Seelleur Ara.
Kay Le Seelleur Ara's exhibition will be featured at CCA Galleries International from 20 September to 01 November.
