Gulliver’s Travels at 300: Did Jonathan Swift predict AI?

Satirical masterpiece has been irresistible to illustrators, abridgers and adaptors since its sensational arrival - and its lessons on human nature remain prescient

“Naughton’s work explores the nature of human experience through colour, movement and light, with a particular emphasis on the expressive qualities of line.
Working intuitively and without a predetermined plan, she allows spontaneity to shape the work, preserving the energy of its making. The mark of the hand remains central to her practice, reflecting an interest in individuality and human identity.”

Extract from Philip Carton’s interview of the artist, published in the Business Post on Sunday 4 October 2026.

We’re from 1pm to 5pm today and tomorrow Sunday.

What’s On - ART Exhibitions

Dublin: Painted Presence

The Olivier Cornet Gallery shows ‘Presence’, a solo exhibition by Sheila Naughton. As an artist, Naughton is interested in the relationship between painting, the artist, the viewer and space, and considers an abstract painting as a silent presence, meant to be felt rather than read by the viewer.

Sheila Naughton: until 1 November

“Where did the title for your current show come from?

An artwork is a living presence. It is a connection to
someone and something. I remember seeing a small,
very beautiful pencil portrait by John Butler Yeats
some years ago. It had such presence. I was fascinated by the idea that some pencil lines on a flat sheet of paper could conjure up an image of a person that I could recognise in the street.”
