A class life in art
“We will examine…”
This work by artist Veronica Dyas, is the first in a series throughout 2022 to be platformed through this partnership. Dyas is an artist working through theatre, new text & installation. Facilitation, action & LOVE are crucial to her practice. She makes work to investigate contemporary living, acknowledging the visceral reality of past trauma while always focused towards healing. In this two-part work for Project Arts Centre’s TEDI Commission, Veronica chose to work with artist and photographer Louis Haugh, whose work is informed by his interest in history, landscape, identity, micro-histories, story-telling & archives. His work often draws on his own identity as a queer working-class artist, and his aesthetic and lived experiences growing up and working in contemporary Ireland resonates deeply with her own.
