Aground is a visual arts exhibition and event taking place in Moville on September 16th and 17th as part of the Donegal 2016: Cultural Expression programme. The artworks on show include sculpture, photographs, drawings and writings. Themes and subjects range from Erskine Childers’ propaganda press and marine warfare, to ‘native’ flora and plants, narratives of map-making and a sculptural ‘Ladder’.
