Event Details

Exhibition continues from 23/01/2026 to 28/02/2026.

We make and mold, visceral, hand made works from shared and lived experiences with infertility, miscarriage, endometriosis and premature ovarian failure. Our current work has developed out of a fundamental compulsion to ‘make’ through the loss and grief of remembered futures.

We are interested in the history and politics that surround the female identity and the body. The focus for the work for this exhibition is on the representation of women in literature at the end of the 18th Century in the light of contemporary female ideologies, exploring and comparing the internalisation of dominant cultural beliefs regarding expected roles for girls and women in Ireland today.
