MYTHLANTICS
[2024-2026]
'Mythlantics' examines legacies of migration and strategies of survival within the family unit with a focus on engagement with Black and Mixed-Race culture in Ireland. Building on ideas and collaborations established in the 'Family Lines Project' at Douglas Hyde Gallery (2021-22) and 'Mehrfamilienhaus' at Museum Villa Stuck in Munich (2023), this new project partners with Sirius Arts Centre (aka SIRIUS) in Cobh, Co. Cork to engage local and global familial histories of immigration, colonisation, fragmentation and recovery in an Atlantic context. Here the project establishes a decentralised, networked, creative space, presenting new and recently commissioned work through exhibition, workshops, screenings and a residency.
The exhibition will tour Ireland in 2025-26.
