From Michael Croghan's new project, Uncommon Sights, a condensed personal exploration of realities in the everyday, with a focus on the fringes of place. Archiving fragments of uncommon commonalities of local place in the midlands of Ireland, County Longford, a pastoral and urban landscape, in between other projects and life continually. This personal archive has been gathered over a number of years, photographed spontaneously and opportunistically, with a tangible curiosity and intuition. Lifting the veil of usually hidden fabric of spaces that have just as much intrinsic value to place but rarely captured, done faithfully and unpretentiously. The work seeks to visualise unspoken narratives and redeem the disparity in representation of place.

About the Artist

Michael Croghan is a documentary photographer who photographs in-between spaces, in a poetic realist and formalist style adaptive to the everyday vernacular. He collaborates with communities of interest to explore social tropes and hidden histories, a transcendence of the familiar to draw attention to the poetry of the common place Michael is an obsessive daily image maker, working on multiple works at any given time, and revisiting the same places because of the temporal nature of things.
