Ahead of her exhibition in Dublin, Brian Fallon looks at the work of artist Carol Hodder
Carol Hodder has been painting steadily for well over twenty years and – private exhibitions apart – has shown her work in such prestige settings as the Royal Hibernian Academy and the Royal Academy in London, exhibited in numerous group exhibitions and won various awards. (She seems especially proud of her Fellowship Award from the Ballinglen Arts Foundation in Co Mayo.) Living and working in her native Cork, and exhibiting mainly in recent years in the Catherine Hammond Gallery there, Hodder obviously is not a ‘regular’ in the Dublin art world. Yet she has shown there twice with the Solomon gallery.
