some fundamental forces

Isabel Nolan: some fundamental forces is the Irish artist’s first comprehensive UK solo exhibition, bringing together two decades of work across painting, drawing, sculpture, installation, photography and tapestry. Opening at Southwark Park Galleries before touring to Liverpool's Bluecoat, the exhibition explores humanity's place within the wider universe through scientific, historical and spiritual perspectives. Presented as Nolan represents Ireland at the 2026 Venice Biennale, the survey highlights her thoughtful, materially rich practice and its invitation to look beyond the immediate world.
