# Event Details

- **Event Name**:  Objects and Symbols Workshop | Lara Quinn
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 22 Apr, 2026 at 02:00 pm – Wed, 22 Apr, 2026 at 04:00 pm (+01:00)
- **Event Description**: Join artist Lara Quinn for this free art-making workshop at GOMA Waterford, on Wednesday 22 April. 

Participants will explore how everyday objects and symbols have come to be associated with religious iconography. Participants are invited to create their own personal ‘symbol’ in response to this theme, followed by an open discussion about their choices and the meanings they assign to these objects.

Lara Quinn is currently exhibiting work as part of SANCTUM at GOMA Waterford (2 – 25 April), an exhibition curated by Anna Jeznach and Ciara Magee, the awardees of GOMA Waterford’s Emerging Curator Award 2026. Quinn is an artist based in Cork City, working across oil painting, performance, and film.

Informed by art movements such as magic-realism, her work harnesses mythological themes and art-historic symbolism to address autobiographical narratives concerning identity and womanhood. Often portraying herself as the character Lilith, Quinn’s current practice harnesses mythological narratives and symbolism to procure a veiled reimagining of her own lived experiences.

By reprising age-old myths in the context of the 21st century, she hopes to reaffirm the significance of mythology today as a universally accessible tool to explore both cultural and personal identities.
