Maria Liddy is an abstract landscape artist from Armagh, based in Belfast. Working primarily in oils, her paintings emerge from a deep connection to nature, shaped by memory and lived experience. This collection reflects her upbringing in Armagh, drawing on quiet, personal moments in places such as Loughgall and Gosford Forest Park. Rather than focusing on familiar Armagh landmarks, Liddy explores overlooked, intimate spaces, those we return to for comfort and belonging.

‘Somewhere Only We Know’ celebrates these hidden landscapes, inviting viewers to reconnect with their own cherished places of stillness, familiarity, and refuge.

Between Cloud and Ground marks a new body of work from ceramic artist Ciara Campbell-Crawford, introducing new forms that reach beyond the vessel into open space. Inspired by the vast, dramatic skies of Ireland, where light shifts in an instant and clouds gather with dramatic intensity, these pieces capture a landscape in constant motion.

At the heart of the work are birds in flight: fleeting, purposeful, free. Rendered in clay, they carry the weight of longing and the lightness of escape in equal measure. The Irish landscape below is felt rather than mapped, elemental, abstract, and intimately familiar.

Between Cloud and Ground is an invitation to look up, to breathe out, and to find, in the beauty of sky, wing and open air, a moment of pure freedom.
