I’m pleased to be taking part in a forthcoming exhibition in the Gallery of Photography in Dublin, Engage. The exhibition will include images from Rural Fluorescent, alongside work from Aisling McCoy, Alberto Maserin, Andrew Rankin, Denis O’Shea, Jan McCullough and Ruby Wallis.

ENGAGE is a new collaboration between Belfast Exposed Futures programme and Gallery of Photography. It highlights both organisations’ sustained support for photographic artists living and working across the island of Ireland. The work by the seven selected artists reflects the vitality of the Irish contemporary photography scene. Each distinctive body of work is the result of a long term, sustained process of engagement by the artist with their chosen themes.

To launch the exhibition, I’ll be participating in a panel discussion at 5pm on Thursday 22nd of June, followed by the opening reception at 6pm. The exhibition will run until the 13th of August in the Gallery of Photography, Meeting House Square, Temple Bar, Dublin.
