TULCA returns to the Hynes Building this year, reinstating it as the central gallery and gathering point of the festival. This expansive exhibition brings together works by Caroline Mac Cathmhaoil, Seán O’Riordan, Jess Zamora-Turner, Mair Hughes, Emily Joy, Durre Shahwar, and Caoimhín Gaffney.
Across film, installation, sound and text, the artists explore layered relationships between memory, belonging and representation. Together, their works form the conceptual and emotional centre of Strange lands still bear common ground.
Set within the raw architecture of Hynes Building, this exhibition invites visitors to move between spaces of reflection and encounter, tracing the festival’s wider theme through the presentation of new and recent works.
