'Dun na nGall' (Donegal) means the fort of the strangers, and it is no-coincidence that Sarah Lewtas lives in the townland of Min na nGall (the place of the strangers),at the foot of Errigal. In an extraordinary exhibition of the artist's work, curated by Una Campbell at An Gaileari, Falcarragh, some months back, it became apparent that this artist has found her way into a very particular and distinctive terrain and is emerging as one of the most vital and distinctive artists of her generation.

Since the 1970's Lewtas has travelled widely in India, Nepal, Central and South America, renewing and transforming an interest in mythology. This has been a major stimulus for her art.

In the Context Gallery, Derry, an installation of three giat anthropomorphic forms,suspended in the main space of the gallery, makes up the centrepiece of this one-person exhibition. Each suspended from a single hawser attached to steel beams in the ceiling of the gallery, facing one another in a triangle, the pieces sway, the heaviest - made of bones - remaining almost immobile when touched. Each piece has a discenible front and back with a contrasting and distinctive character: they could be understood as three distinctive presences or aspects of a single being.
