The works are as exciting and varied as the natural landscape of the gardens. Several works address the theme of home and shelter. The show encompasses a stimulating mix of media including the use of sound, and video works by Michele Horrigan and Louise Manifold.

The aim of Outside: Insight is to give artists an opportunity to make work for outdoors and gives visitors to the gardens an opportunity to engage with art in a natural context.

The Outside: Insight exhibition is presented in association with Galway Arts Centre 
 Galway Arts Centre association with Outside: Insight Sculpture in the gardens at Brigit's Garden, Galway, Ireland

  and supported by the Galway County Council.
