RATTLEBAG X RE.MIX.ER – March 5th 2026
BEN CONNOLLY is an artist and designer based in Co. Antrim. He works primarily in oil, painting from
film scans, personal photographs, memory, and imagined scenes. His work reflects on the human
experience and the small stories it contains, revealing a bigger picture and leaving the viewer to
imagine what lies beyond the frame.
BETWEEN THINGS centres on what is often overlooked. The works consider pauses in encounters,
imagined moments and almost memories treating the in-between not as a gap around life’s events
but as where life is most keenly felt. The exhibition invites viewers to step into these fragments of
time, imagine a surrounding narrative, and recognise the fragility and beauty of everyday experience.
