Overview

The solo show features over 25 new drawings and glass works exploring the legacies of colonial systems of coercion, exploitation and extraction in Europe and the US.

New works explore burial sites in Ireland designated for those considered ‘unsuitable’ for consecrated ground, contemporary landscapes devastated by ecological disasters and recently toppled imperial statues.
