Moore Street Pulse, Aarif Amod

The series is produced from interactions with people and communities in the location of Moore Street Dublin – a historical quarter famously known as being the soul of city trading.

While using expressive approach to document everyday life on the Street, Amod’s focus is on the massive cultural shift currently happening on Moore Street – capturing its vibrancy and cultures. With workers and passer-bys from all over the world, the street expresses a vibrant and transformative space, while in the background is a context of its place in Irish history. With recent renewal plans to restore Moore Street, which will reactivate one of the most important trading points in the city, finding a balance between holding onto the important national history of Moore Street while also maintaining a cultural presence plays a vital role

For those that are not familiar with the project, TLP Editions is an ongoing collection, produced and designed by PhotoIreland, that presents work by contemporary artists in the form of uncomplicated publications. These are available through The Library Project in-store and online. All and any funds generated by the project go to producing more copies of the publications, ensuring we can keep promoting the artists and practices represented. These editions are regularly showcased and donated to international events and festivals, such as the Icelandic Photography Festival recently. In addition, TLP Editions also grace some important shelves and collections, including that of the Hasselblad Foundation Library and the Martin Parr Foundation.

You can find a list of all the TLP Editions here.
