Artist Siobhan McDonald reflects on the creative processes and formative energies in nature contained within atmospheres, molecules, sounds and seeds. Positioning her work within geological history, Crystalline explores our understanding of time and our relationship with a continually changing environment. The themes that animate Crystalline—the deep history of materials and their changing states and the fragility of bodies and landforms exposed to the elements continue through the exhibition. McDonald’s research and preparatory work included an expedition to the Arctic Circle in 2015, collaborative work with the European Space Agency and an ongoing studio residency in the College of Science at University College Dublin. For Highlanes Gallery, this new iteration of Crystalline brings together a customized selection of works related to the substance of ancient and historic natural forms, a set of Arctic plant pressings from the 1825 Franklin Expedition. This is a key work in this exhibition, drawing a thread to the past that is tangible and that predates the climate challenge of our times. This is complemented on film by the ghostly spectre of an expeditionary ship in the very waters where the Franklin ship sailed over 150 ago, with the retrieved sound of the glacie
