Keith Drury exhibits his new neurodivergent art series inspired by Alice in Wonderland
Well-known Belfast artist, Keith Drury, renowned for his intricate and colourful cityscapes, is showcasing his ground-breaking new art series which delves into the complexities of neurodiversity. This exciting new art collection has been inspired by the whimsical world of Lewis Carroll’s classic, Alice in Wonderland.
Following his diagnosis of autism last year, Keith has channelled his personal experience and insights into a vibrant collection addressing themes of mental health isolation and identity.
We’re All Mad Here features a diverse array of styles, colours and compositions, all unified by the iconic character of Alice. Each piece aims to foster understanding and compassion for those who navigate the complexities of mental health issues and identity.
Keith’s aim is to create a body of work that not only reflects his journey but also opens a dialogue about the diverse experiences within the neurodivergent community. Using Alice as a central figure has allowed Keith to connect these themes in a way that is both relatable and thought-provoking.
Exhibiting throughout September in the Long Gallery Stormont, Parliament Building
Special Launch: 9th September 7pm – 9pm. Sponsored by Claire Sugden MLA.
Attendees will have the opportunity to engage with the artwork and participate in discussions surrounding neurodiversity and mental health.
