If you’re passing through Cork Airport this month, don’t miss ‘As Without So Within’, a solo exhibition by textile artist Rebecca Powell. Known for her intricate stitched pieces, Powell draws inspiration from the wild and untamed landscapes of Ireland. She creates her work with hand-stitching, using silk, wool, and linen.

Powell is also the founder of the newly formed West Cork Collective in Ballinspittle, Co Cork. The group’s motto is, “Alone we can, however, together feels better”

The exhibition runs until the 10th of May.
