The four artists in this show are linked - as the title suggests - by a shared interest in creating paintings in series. In this fashion the artists exploit a variety of alternatives within a particular subject, therefore giving the viewer a broader insight into the phenomena which provided the original inspiration.
Katherine Boucher Beug's paintings have previously accessed a very intuitive and personalised language of mark making. Building on this resource, she has produced a series of small, yet wonderfully charged acrylic paintings - "snapshots" which convey the raw energy of her landscape subject. These relate well to Margaret O'Sullivan's equally concise oil paintings, which are imbued with a naturalism and sense of place captured directly from western coastal reaches. Here, the artist is clearly moved by places of beauty and skillfully captures convincing representations of breakwater, rocks and sand - rendered with a deft, painterly flourish.
Pat Harris's paintings have a more definite picturesque ethic in tow as he focuses upon the incidence of mountainside, sky and lake. But this is where the relationship with conventional landscape ends, as details of the physical environment are subsumed under a minimalist veil, which highlights quite strongly linear interplay.
Bernadette Kiely's fire paintings are, from a moderate distance, quite realistic. She convincingly capturing wispy smoke and rich burning embers. And while there is no symbolic embellishment, her intense investigation seems to be deeply attuned to this evocative, spiritual source.
Runs until August 24th
