'Shorelines'

A collection of works from around the world linked by the theme of shores. Paintings of Irelands lush green coastal pockets sit alongside the sun bleached rocky shores of Australia. One partuicular piece highlighting a new branching out in Síofra's style is 'Boat Raft'. This painting is a personal favourite of the artist's because it is a place she visited in February 2005 and was compelled to try and capture it's dizzying perspective and panorama. The piece is of many little wooden boats pulled up on a make-shift raft of wooden laths lain helter skelter across each other, a maze of criss-crossing shapes with the curved softer shapes of the boats on top with a backdrop of layered sands and large rocks weaving underneath the structure. In painting the picture in what is essentially varying shades of the one colour, she wanted to recreate this pleasant confusion of shapes and objects without the distraction of colour.
