The Library Project, Dublin, 2020
I was the recipient of the Black Church Print Studio Emerging Curator Award 2019 as a result of which I curated Pastures in The Library Project, Dublin.
Pastures brings together the work of five artists - Hayley Gault, Catriona Leahy, Dorothy Smith, Ronan Smyth and Katie Watchorn. The exhibition explores aspects of rural life in Ireland and highlights questions around rural identity by drawing attention to the important legacy and material culture of agriculture and craft.
