The series of images examines the relationship between the photograph, body, and urban space in the context of globalised production and neoliberal governance. The work, set in Dublin and Helsinki, reflects on the symbolism and imagery used to influence the place-making process and rewrite our understanding of the contemporary city. The presence of the body within the photographs acts as an allegory, demonstrating our relationship with modern urban space as being determined by the forces that build them. These forces are frequently in the form of global investment corporations, who use space as a commodity for profit and investment. Therefore, the ideological forces that build them often dictate the relationships we have with our urban spaces.

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.
