SCREENING WEDNESDAY 26th AUGUST

Artist Amanda Cullen has painted in isolation for years, using art as both expression and refuge. Once institutionalised and spoken about by others, Amanda reclaims her narrative through her unique canvases — works that evoke the chaos of her experience. As she prepares for her first retrospective and her story reaches national newspapers, Amanda navigates the vulnerability of sharing both her art and truth. Jiménez’ sensitive film captures her journey to transform silence into radiance.

The screening will be followed by a Q&A with José Miguel Jiménez and Amanda Cullen

A Reel Art Film funded by the Arts Council of Ireland.
