About
'Over the last year The Sir Denis Mahon Award has allowed me the time and resources to develop my practice and to really digest what I had learned on The Drawing Year. The award has enabled me to experiment with scale materials and approaches to making work and has provided me with a year that has been incredibly beneficial to my practice. This exhibition represents the culmination of a years work in which I have continued my interrogation of quotidian scenarios as a means to explore space, atmosphere and surface.' Jack McGarrity 2022
Jack McGarrity studied on the Royal Drawing School’s postgraduate programme, The Drawing Year, and is the 2021-22 recipient of the Sir Denis Mahon Award. The Sir Denis Mahon prize of £10,000 is awarded to an outgoing Drawing Year student each year. The award allows them to continue their practice, providing them with funding for a studio space as well as a solo exhibition at the end of the year. Jack previously studied Fine Art: Painting and Printmaking at The Glasgow School of Art.
