Curated by Julia Moustacchi
Repository Apparatus for Magical Thinking: Theia Mania I is a peek into Cecilia Bullo’s long-standing research into Antonin Artaud’s oeuvre and life. The tumultuous journey of the 20th century French writer, poet and essayist (among other things) resonates with Bullo’s inquiry of ‘magical thinking’, a medical term used in relation to coping mechanisms in some anxiety and psychological disorders. Artaud suffered from mental illness, which caused him to be arrested in the Milltown Jesuits College, situated up the road of the Ranelagh Arts Centre at the time.

Distinct Exhibition, presented by Disrupt Disability Arts Festival
Project Arts Centre is thrilled to present Distinct, an exhibition curated by AlanJames Burns which explores the climate crisis through the perspective of disability. Platforming eleven artists whose practices represent the diverse, intersectional voices of the disability arts community, the exhibition navigates how lived experiences of disability can help inform more sustainable ways of living.
Showing new and reformulated works by Cecilia Bullo, Yvonne Condon, Richard Forrest, Michelle Hall, Vera Klute, Ruth Le Gear, Jane McCormack, David Parnell, Aisling Reina, Katherine Sankey and Suzanne Walsh, Distinct coincides with the launch of Disrupt Disability Arts Festival, Ireland’s new annual disability-led and disability-focused arts festival.
Cecilia presents a large-scale photographic work that reformulates cast sculptures of toads as a wearable assemblage on her body, exploring material cultures relating to rituals of healing and transformation through mythological, archaeological, feminist and ecological lenses.

Periodical Review 12—Practical Magic
Periodical Review (2011–ongoing) is a long-running curatorial project which sets out to consider, revisit and review current movements within contemporary art practices from around Ireland. Intended as a space for critical appraisal and consolidation of ideas and knowledge, the aim through each subsequent edition is to facilitate and encourage new readings, collaboration, crossover and debate. Not a group exhibition per se, Periodical Review is a discursive action, with the gallery presented as a journal, a magazine-like layout of artworks in dialogue, the field talking to itself.
ArtConnect’s Artists to Watch '22
“Fibrous, sticky, and full of feminine symbolism, the work of Cecilia Bullo offers a sculptural interrogation of an evolving feminine materiality. She often deploys mythic and ritual forms to enliven and bring to the fore, potent feminine narratives.”
Nato Thompson
Curator
