‘Breaking Free’ by Brendan Megarity at the Engine Room Gallery is an exhibition of paintings in oil and tempera, based on ink sketches of people and their surroundings. Megarity focuses on texture, using an array of tools to manipulate the surface of the paintings. The gallery also hosts two memorial exhibitions: one on Des Edwards, ‘The Life of Des Edwards’; and ‘Jenny’, which celebrates the life of artist Jenny Magee.
Brendan Megarity: until 1 April; The Life of Des Edwards: 6 – 29 April; Jenny: 4 – 27 May
