The exhibition re-presentations includes the archives and documentation of the X-PO project, which formed the outcome of Deirdre O’Mahony’s PhD at the University of Brighton exhibited within the context of the artist’s other public artworks and personal practice. The exhibition incorporates documentary videos, paintings, photographs and found objects that provide a critical account of the role of a socially engaged, ‘activist’, arts practice in the unique and specific site of the Burren, County Clare.
