Between the notes brings together work by three acclaimed Irish artists — Lorcan Vallely, Barry Kerr and Liam O’Neill — in an exhibition exploring the connections between music, memory, community and place.

The exhibition brings together scenes of musicians gathering in Belfast’s streets and squares with more intimate reflections on landscape, culture and personal memory. Through charcoal and oil, each artist offers a distinctive interpretation of the people, places and shared experiences that connect us.

Together, the works reveal how music can become a language of belonging, carrying stories across generations and preserving the rhythms of everyday life. Whether depicting public performances or quieter moments of contemplation, the artists examine the emotional resonance of shared traditions and the enduring relationship between people and their surroundings. Between the Notes invites visitors to reflect on the spaces between sound and silence, where memory, identity and collective experience continue to shape the cultural landscape.
