In this episode, artist Bernadette Kiely talks to me about her journey through Art, through her days of combining mothering with her practice, to processing the passing of her own mother Maisie through her painting. And water.... the abiding presence of water...

…tell me about your mother…(feat. The Two Travellers) is strongly rooted in the artist’s sense of place and the evocative memories that they hold. Through revisiting places from her childhood and using old photographs and postcards of the area, Kiely was able to reflect on her mother Maisie’s life and recent passing. The work in this exhibition is an intimate collection of smaller works including drawings, paintings, photographs and poetry with reference objects.
