This exhibition brings together work by Greag Mac a’tSaoir and Anna Marie Savage both of whom grew up in the border town of Newry in the 1970s and 1980s and Ciaran Dunbar, born in Dundalk in 1982 to parents originally from the north of Ireland. Their practices span painting, photography, sculpture and installation.It is against the backdrop of the border town of Dundalk, where he currently lives and works, that issues of identity, displacement and marginalisation have become the focus of Ciaran Dunbar’s work. ‘Diesel’ investigates the socioeconomic, political and environmental impact of diesel laundering along the Irish border. The work traces the illegal dumping of toxic waste material by diesel launderers at sites along the border between Counties Louth, Armagh and Down. Map
