6th Annual ÍOVA Culture Night Exhibition
Venue: Reds Gallery, Dublin
Presented by: The ÍOVA Photography Collective

I’m pleased to share that my photograph Unhappiness is included in I Live Here, the 6th annual Culture Night exhibition by the ÍOVA Photography Collective.

This year’s theme, I Live Here, reflects on the many places and spaces we inhabit — in our minds, our bodies, our homes, and our communities. It asks us to consider how these inner and outer worlds shape who we are, and how we, in turn, shape the world around us.

Featuring work from over 50 photographers, the exhibition offers a wide-ranging and personal view of life in contemporary Ireland — exploring belonging, identity, and the ways we find meaning, stability, and connection amid constant change.

‘Dystopian Billboard’ examines the fragile boundary between nature and human culture, using decaying billboards as symbols of both resilience and impermanence. The work reflects on how our constructed landscapes are inevitably shaped and reclaimed by natural forces, revealing the intertwined narratives of humanity, environment, and time.

My environmental work explores the fragile and shifting relationship between humans and the natural world, often through landscapes where the traces of human presence are being weathered, reclaimed, or quietly absorbed by nature. Using photography and site-responsive practices, I focus on the points where growth meets decay, and where the constructed and organic overlap — revealing a space of both tension and transformation. I’m drawn to places marked by erosion, neglect, or abandonment — sites where the effects of time, weather, and human intervention converge. These locations speak not only to environmental disruption but also to the potential for repair. Natural elements and found human debris become materials through which I consider how damage might be acknowledged rather than erased, and how beauty can be found in what has been altered or broken. Central to my practice is the belief that restoration doesn’t have to mean concealment. Instead, I aim to highlight fragility with intention and care, creating work that acts as a quiet form of empathy—for the land, for the passage of time, and for the unresolved traces we leave behind.

I had the pleasure of exhibiting 6 of my images last weekend in the ReVerve Artist Collective group exhibition during the Hinterland Festival in Kells. The exhibition’s theme and the Collective’s theme is the environment.

Dúisigí which is the Irish for Wake Up! was our visual call out to viewers to pay more attention to our world, to what we are doing to our world and the consequences of these actions. My own images explore the fragile and evolving relationship between humans and the natural world, using materials and processes that echo both intervention and care. Through photography and site-responsive practices, I reveal subtle interactions between presence and absence, growth and decay, the natural and the human-made.

I have stitched natural elements and found human traces into these photographs in order to explore themes of disruption and repair. By working with landscapes marked by weather, time, and human debris, the tensions we inherit and the ones we create, as well as the possibilities for rejoining what has been separated are revealed.

Central to my practice is the idea that brokenness holds its own kind of beauty, and that restoration need not conceal damage but can instead highlight it with care and intention. The resulting works are gestures toward empathy with the land—documents of resilience, vulnerability, and the traces we leave behind.

The exhibition took place from 26 – 29th June 2025 in the Blue Chapel, Kells.

Happy to announce that two of my photos have been selected for inclusion in ÍOVA Photo Group’s exhibition Lucid Visions: Dreaming Through the Lens.

‘Dreams are fragmented, shifting, emotionally charged experiences which at their essence have an ephemeral, elusive quality. The show ‘Lucid Visions: Dreaming Through the Lens’ represents an opportunity for artists to manifest their dreams in all their splendour, reflecting on their own internal worlds and how they shape their waking lives.’

Opening Night: April 10th 6-9pm
Gallery X, Hume Street, Dublin 2

Exhibition Dates: April 10th–April 27 Gallery Open: Tuesday-Saturday, 1 – 5pm
