“Rapport”

“Rapport” – Art Exhibition by Jo Going, Fiona Woods and Amanda Montgomery

Larne Museum & Arts Centre

Friday 1 – Friday 29 August 2025

"Rapport" is an exhibition of work by three artists, Jo Going, Fiona Woods and Amanda Montgomery.

The three artists met at the Banff Centre for the Arts, Canada, in 2002.

Fiona and Amanda had been awarded three month residencies with the Leighton Studios by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland and the Arts Council of Ireland respectively.

Jo, an artist from Alaska, had a residency there at the same time.

The artists struck up a rapport that continued over 20 years.

This is their second exhibition together.

Their first exhibition, taking place in KAVA, Kinvara, in October 2023.

Sadly, Jo passed in January 2024.

This exhibition brings the three artists together again.

The works are diverse in media and approach. What connects them is a shared interest in looking beyond the surface of things, hinting at sacred spaces and complex narratives, invoking the emotions, sensations and longings that arise from the condition of being human.

The exhibition will be on display from Friday 1 until Friday 29 August 2025, and will include Saturday opening on 16 August.

Opening hours:  Monday to Friday, 10am – 4pm.
