  • Claudi Nir | A Temporary Discomfort

    Claudi Nir | A Temporary Discomfort

    Produced over a period of four years, A Temporary Discomfort deals with the idea of a once familiar place becoming unfamiliar and the emotions that are triggered when the place once called home is not recognizable as such anymore after spending a significant amount of time abroad. (mehr …)

  • David Monahan | Leaving Dublin

    David Monahan | Leaving Dublin

    In the project Leaving Dublin, photographer David Monahan has captured more than 100 imminent emigrants on film as they prepare to leave the city in search of better opportunities abroad.

    I fully recognise the difference between this and previous waves of emigration and at the same time I acknowledge that the quest remains the same – the search for a better life. The work honours the courage behind the decision and the fact that moving to a different country can dramatically shape the future lives of those who leave, and has huge impact on those left behind.“ –David Monahan

  • Quick Brown Fox

    Quick Brown Fox

    Quick Brown Fox is a curated blog by Alex Rose, a photographer from Dublin, Ireland. Alex has an interest in the self publishing world and wanted to create an outlet for photographers to produce mini projects away from their normal practice.
    Quick Brown Fox     was the product of this idea. She wanted to see how one word alone could inspire a piece of work from for a photographer and having completed their own project they then pass on a word to another photographer. It is updated twice a week but towards the end of the month will become weekly. She is looking for submissions of all kinds. (mehr …)

  • Pamela Condell | Inversion

    Pamela Condell | Inversion

    Created: March – June 2011, Berlin, Germany.

    Recently, the continued theme in my work is built around the domestic and the structure of life within a home, the physical nature of the interior and exterior/human interactions and relations/memories/possessions, etc. Home to me is many things, banal and everyday but always of the utmost importance. We all experience moments within our individual contexts of home or family, but do not necessarily share them beyond the physical construct of our own setting. There is an unspoken curiosity to see how others have these moments. (mehr …)

  • Garvan Gallagher | My Way

    Garvan Gallagher | My Way

    Garvan Gallagher – My Way (2010-2011)

    Interpreting the word ‘invisible’, a word commonly used by older people about their place in society, is the basis of this body of work. In particular, I am looking at the area of fashion and whether fashion abandons older people or whether older people simply abandon fashion. Choosing a style, each participant put him or herself forward to reinterpret a fashion shoot from Vogue and other fashion magazines, substituting the younger body for the older body. This series of photographs was made while on an artist residency with Draíocht (Blanchardstown, West Dublin). A video piece along with two other photographic series document the participants in more detail, and in particular their thoughts on growing older with fashion. (mehr …)
