The portraits, created through a variety of mediums, will be displayed in an unused retail unit in Newbridge and will be exhibited alongside items such as sketchbooks, notebooks, contextual references and other items that illustrate the process of creating the artworks.
Kildare Art Collective will also hold a number of collage self-portrait workshops throughout Culture Night where viewers are invited to participate in creating their own mixed media portrait. These workshops are suitable for all ages.
