No Place Like Home: The Domestic in Irish Photography
20 JULY – 2 SEPT 2023

As a people with a long history of migration and dispossession, the notion of home is a deeply emotional one in Ireland. Although evoking a nostalgic sense of warmth and security, the lived reality of domestic life is often at odds with idealised representations. This exhibition considers what ‘home’ looks like in Ireland today and how it reflects wider societal changes.

No Place Like Home brings together work by leading established and early career artists who take us beyond the front door to reveal their experiences of home and domestic life, offering diverse perspectives on family, migration, mental health and economic disparity in Ireland.

Featured artists:
Ciarán Óg Arnold, Enda Bowe, Niamh Crowley, Caleb Daly, Ciarán Dunbar, Tatiana Evonuk, Clare Gallagher, Anthony Haughey, Jamin Keogh, Barialai Khoshhal, Joanne Mullin, Shannon Ritchie, Luke Ryan, Vera Ryklova, and Niamh Smith.
