Knot Bind Gesture Bend is an exhibition of new work by Irish artist and designer Richard Malone. Opening in the National Gallery of Ireland's Education Studio on 4 August 2022, this is Malone's contemporary response to the Gallery's summer show Giacometti: From Life.

Alongside this exhibition we will host a series of free, drop-in sessions and workshops. Everyone is welcome to take part in this mix of playful, practical and discursive activities which will be supported by three creative facilitators, Oisín Kenny, Sarah Ward, and Eileen O’Sullivan. Two core themes, Movement and Space and Language and its Limitations, inform each session. These themes emerged from conversations with Malone on his concept for Knot Bind Gesture Bend and his artistic practice. Through these themes, we will cover a range of topics such as the body, mythology, foclóir, and more.
